The unavailability of coal fired electrical generating capacity is often attributable to corrosion in steam generators. Electricity demand grows faster than new plants come online, forcing greater use of old plants. Identifying such problems requires proper inspection tools and techniques to take the guesswork out of whether boiler tubes should be repaired or replaced.

Methods used to destructively determine the actual crack depths in the Pipeline Research Council International project as well as the statistical comparison of those values to the NDE measurements. We also briefly introduce advanced fracture mechanics analysis techniques that can be used to assess the safety significance of crack-like pipeline anomalies.
This paper will highlight some of the ongoing advances of the HTHA Joint Industry Project (JIP) to date and provide a preview into upcoming developments in the NDE and FFS codes.
The pipeline industry has widely used integrity principles to manage time-dependent and time-independent threats. The detection of time-dependent threats such as corrosion has been accomplished by using inline inspection tool technologies such as ultrasonic and magnetic flux leak inspection tools. However, most facility piping assets can not easily be inspected using in-line inspection methods and must instead be assessed using data collected from operations, such as flow frequency, product type, Cathodic protection record, or Direct Assessment Methods using Non Destructive Testing such as ultrasonic measurements or monitoring of corrosion coupons.
For those managing, planning, selecting, implementing, or evaluating buried pipe inspections using Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) at nuclear power plant sites. Licensing. Regulations. Inspection. Tools. Analysis.
Automated inspection systems are widely used in many industries. Tele-commuting enables an entire spectrum of virtual workers. Tele-inspection combines the automation hardware with a virtually present human-inspector to allow the transfer of manual dexterity in real-time over the internet.
