Thermal Stresses in Coking Chamber During Start and Shutdown

  • Published:
Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

Temperature fields and thermal stresses developed during heating of a coking chamber before the start of coking and during cooling of the chamber after completion of coking are studied for two design versions of the bottom part–support shell welded joint. The permissible number of cycles is estimated. It is demonstrated that while in the existing design of the studied area cracks in the welded joint appear roughly after 1.5–2 years of operation, in the design of the bottom part–support shell joint area proposed by IrkutskNIIkhimmash specialists the coking chamber can operate without repair of this area for a rated operating time of 20 years.
