ABSTRACT
Crude oil heater 9Cre-1Mo steel tubes from a refinery plant were studied, after 5 years of service at
nominally 650 Cº and 3 bar, to predict their remnant lives. The investigation included dimensional,
hardness and tensile measurements in addition to accelerated stress rupture tests between 650 Cº and
700 Cº and microstructural examination. Tube specimens were taken from two sections, the overheated
side and the side which only saw the nominal operating temperature. The method employed involved the
prediction of the increase in temperature with increasing sediment deposition during the operating life
times using an FEM model. In addition the predicted temperatures are used to derive appropriate creep
properties at relevant temperatures in a 3D pipe FEM creep analysis to predict the pipe deformation
rate. All compare well with the actual service exposed pipe measurements and layer deposition. The
overheated side revealed a small loss of creep strength in a stress rupture test. A layer of sediment
(appr. 10 mm thickness) consisting basically of sintered carbon (coke) spread over the inside of the tube
was acting as a thermal barrier causing the temperature to rise above 650 Cº. Analysis for the
overheated side predicted an upper bound temperature of 800 Cº and a life of about 50 h suggesting that
failure by creep rupture could occur rapidly in the sediment region.

1. INTRODUCTION
Internally pressurized tubes are critical components in heat exchanger applications, such as boiler
water tubes, steam super heater elements and chemical plant reformer tubes [1, 2]. Such tubes in
power plants have a finite life because of prolonged exposure to high temperatures, stresses and
aggressive environments.
Remaining life assessment of aged power plant components in the present highly competitive
industrial scene has become necessary both for economic and safety reasons as most of the power
plants are over 25 years old. In real life situations both premature retirement and life extension in
relation to the original design life can be encountered [2].
The consequences of failure of a component in use can be tragic and expensive. There are many cases
of engineering disasters resulting in loss of life and property. For boiler components, utmost attention
is required to ensure that such incidents cannot take place. Carbon and 9Cre-1Mo steels are
extensively used in high temperature components in power plants. Even though most of these
components have a specific design life of 20 years, past experience has shown that they can have
significant remaining life beyond the original design specification [3].

One of the most widely used techniques for life assessment of components involves removal of
service exposed alloy and conducting accelerated tests at temperatures above the service temperature
[4]. The aim of the present work is to evaluate the remaining life of Crude oil heater 9Cre-1Mo steel
tubes from a refinery plant, after 5 years of service, based on experimental and numerical analysis.
2. EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM
The material specification with service condition and history of operation of the exposed 9Cre-1Mo
steel super heater and re-heater tubes from a refinery furnace that heats crude oil at 350 Cº, but
outside tubes (convection zone and radiation zone) were around 650-690 Cº.
So we have a furnace tube design, operating and safety information’s are given in Table 1. Due to
impurities in crude oil, basically sintered carbon (coke) has been deposited on the lower half of the
tube section (Fig. 2.2). In this section, the rate of heat transfer from the tube to the crude oil
would therefore decrease. In order to keep the temperature of the crude oil constant at 350 Cº more
heat is required and subsequently material at this section (Fig. 2.2) will experience a higher
temperature in comparison to the other side.
This increase of temperature leads to higher physical and metallurgical damage, hence leading to a
shorter safe operating time. In this article an experimental comparison has been made between the
overheated and not-overheated side using manufacturing details and FEM results.

4. CONCLUSIONS
Crude oil heater 9Cre-1Mo steel tubes from a refinery plant after 5 year of service at nominally 650C
̊
and 3 bar were studied to predict their remnant life. A software program using accelerated creep testing
and metallographic investigation in parallel with a numerical analysis was used to perform the remnant
life calculation of the service aged tubes. The method employed involved the prediction of the increase
in temperature with increasing sediment deposition during the operating life times. In addition the
predicted temperatures were used to derive appropriate creep properties at relevant temperatures in a 3D
pipe FEM creep analysis to predict the pipe bending deformation rate. These compare well with the
actual service exposed pipe measurements and conditions. All results indicate that in the overheated side
of the tube, the creep life was reduced substantially but on the side under normal operating temperature
significant remnant life still exists. It is also shown that the growth of sediment thickness is
approximately proportional to the rise in temperature and pipe deformation (pipe bend).
The stresses induced in the tubes as shows in fig.3.3 and fig.3.2 are complex and ANSYS macro can
handle this kind of complex shapes easily. The stress levels are within acceptable limit as per ASTM,
A200-V01. As such under the actual operating conditions the component would be safe
. The maximum
temperature redeveloped is
400C
̊ͦ ̊
which is less than the recommended operating of
9Cre-1Mo Material.

Remaining life assessment of refinery furnace tubes using finite element method

  • 1. 6 Remaining Life Assessment of Refinery Furnace Tubes Using Finite Element Method Barhm Abdullah Mohamad, Abdelsalam Abdelhussien Petroleum Technology Department, Koya Technical Institute, EPU, KRG, Iraq International Journal of Research in Mechanical Engineering Volume 4, Issue 2, March-April, 2016, pp. 06-09 ISSN Online: 2347-5188 Print: 2347-8772, DOI: /m9 10.6084 / doi.org http:// © IASTER 2016, www.iaster.com ABSTRACT Crude oil heater 9Cre-1Mo steel tubes from a refinery plant were studied, after 5 years of service at nominally 650 Cº and 3 bar, to predict their remnant lives. The investigation included dimensional, hardness and tensile measurements in addition to accelerated stress rupture tests between 650 Cº and 700 Cº and microstructural examination. Tube specimens were taken from two sections, the overheated side and the side which only saw the nominal operating temperature. The method employed involved the prediction of the increase in temperature with increasing sediment deposition during the operating life times using an FEM model. In addition the predicted temperatures are used to derive appropriate creep properties at relevant temperatures in a 3D pipe FEM creep analysis to predict the pipe deformation rate. All compare well with the actual service exposed pipe measurements and layer deposition. The overheated side revealed a small loss of creep strength in a stress rupture test. A layer of sediment (appr. 10 mm thickness) consisting basically of sintered carbon (coke) spread over the inside of the tube was acting as a thermal barrier causing the temperature to rise above 650 Cº. Analysis for the overheated side predicted an upper bound temperature of 800 Cº and a life of about 50 h suggesting that failure by creep rupture could occur rapidly in the sediment region. Keywords: Refinery Furnace Tube Design, Thermal Stress Test, Stress and Temperature Distribution, Finite Element Method, Solid Modeling, Failure Analysis. 1. INTRODUCTION Internally pressurized tubes are critical components in heat exchanger applications, such as boiler water tubes, steam super heater elements and chemical plant reformer tubes [1, 2]. Such tubes in power plants have a finite life because of prolonged exposure to high temperatures, stresses and aggressive environments. Remaining life assessment of aged power plant components in the present highly competitive industrial scene has become necessary both for economic and safety reasons as most of the power plants are over 25 years old. In real life situations both premature retirement and life extension in relation to the original design life can be encountered [2]. The consequences of failure of a component in use can be tragic and expensive. There are many cases of engineering disasters resulting in loss of life and property. For boiler components, utmost attention is required to ensure that such incidents cannot take place. Carbon and 9Cre-1Mo steels are extensively used in high temperature components in power plants. Even though most of these components have a specific design life of 20 years, past experience has shown that they can have significant remaining life beyond the original design specification [3].
  • 2. International Journal of Research in Mechanical Engineering Volume-4, Issue-2, March-April, 2016, www.iaster.com ISSN (O) 2347-5188 (P) 2347-8772 7 One of the most widely used techniques for life assessment of components involves removal of service exposed alloy and conducting accelerated tests at temperatures above the service temperature [4]. The aim of the present work is to evaluate the remaining life of Crude oil heater 9Cre-1Mo steel tubes from a refinery plant, after 5 years of service, based on experimental and numerical analysis. 2. EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM The material specification with service condition and history of operation of the exposed 9Cre-1Mo steel super heater and re-heater tubes from a refinery furnace that heats crude oil at 350 Cº, but outside tubes (convection zone and radiation zone) were around 650-690 Cº. So we have a furnace tube design, operating and safety information’s are given in Table 1. Due to impurities in crude oil, basically sintered carbon (coke) has been deposited on the lower half of the tube section (Fig. 2.2). In this section, the rate of heat transfer from the tube to the crude oil would therefore decrease. In order to keep the temperature of the crude oil constant at 350 Cº more heat is required and subsequently material at this section (Fig. 2.2) will experience a higher temperature in comparison to the other side. This increase of temperature leads to higher physical and metallurgical damage, hence leading to a shorter safe operating time. In this article an experimental comparison has been made between the overheated and not-overheated side using manufacturing details and FEM results.

Solid 87 3-D 10-Node tetrahedral thermal solid (fig.3.1) is well suited to model irregular meshes. The element has one degree of freedom, temperature, at each node. The boundary conditions presented in Fig.3.1. And maximum induced thermal stresses are presented in Fig.3.2 & Fig.3.3. As such under the actual operating conditions the component would be safe. The maximum temperature redeveloped is 400C ͦ which is less than the recommended operating of (ASTM) A200-V01. Fig.3.1.The Boundary Conditions Fig.3.2.Maximum Induced Stresses

International Journal of Research in Mechanical Engineering Volume-4, Issue-2, March-April, 2016, www.iaster.com ISSN (O) 2347-5188 (P) 2347-8772 9 Fig.3.3.Detailed View of Maximum Induced Stresses 4. CONCLUSIONS Crude oil heater 9Cre-1Mo steel tubes from a refinery plant after 5 year of service at nominally 650C ̊ and 3 bar were studied to predict their remnant life. A software program using accelerated creep testing and metallographic investigation in parallel with a numerical analysis was used to perform the remnant life calculation of the service aged tubes. The method employed involved the prediction of the increase in temperature with increasing sediment deposition during the operating life times. In addition the predicted temperatures were used to derive appropriate creep properties at relevant temperatures in a 3D pipe FEM creep analysis to predict the pipe bending deformation rate. These compare well with the actual service exposed pipe measurements and conditions. All results indicate that in the overheated side of the tube, the creep life was reduced substantially but on the side under normal operating temperature significant remnant life still exists. It is also shown that the growth of sediment thickness is approximately proportional to the rise in temperature and pipe deformation (pipe bend). The stresses induced in the tubes as shows in fig.3.3 and fig.3.2 are complex and ANSYS macro can handle this kind of complex shapes easily. The stress levels are within acceptable limit as per ASTM, A200-V01. As such under the actual operating conditions the component would be safe . The maximum temperature redeveloped is 400C ̊ͦ ̊ which is less than the recommended operating of 9Cre-1Mo Material. REFERENCES [1] Jones DRH.
