Material damage of Unifiner Change Heater: Tube used for nearly 20 years was evaluated and Mechanical tests such as tensile tests and creep-rupture tests were conducted to predict the residual life. After the investigation, any major damage or degradation was not found except the welded zone. Microstructural observation showed that most of delta-ferrite was transformed. to sigma-phase and consequently, the ductility was very much reduced. A KLA(Knife-Line Attack) crack with 60mm in length and 2.8mm in depth was found just near the welded zone, which is believed to be caused by intergranular corrosion. Creep-rupture tests, which are very essential to predict the residual life, showed that both used base and weld metals have similar results with the reference data.
