PRE-SHUTDOWN INSPECTION PROGRAM
On-stream inspection is also important to
identify problems which can not be seen while the equipment is out-of-service.
A discussion with operations and maintenance personnel is highly recommended to
identify problem areas. At this time, a review of the operating conditions may
also help to indicate problems, such as: O2 percentage, (inability to maintain
target O2 could indicate leaks or burner problems), draft (unsteady/pulsating
draft can damage heater/boiler components), drum levels, pressures and
temperatures.
An infrared scan of the casing can allow a hot
spot map to be created so that these areas can be investigated during the
maintenance outage. Flame locations and appearance can help identify problems
with burner tiles, refractory, and floors. Flames emanating from a portion of
floor or wall indicate a problem that needs follow-up inspection. Complete an
external inspection to determine condition of the structure, such as buckstays,
to look for signs of expansion/buckling. Also, inspect external equipment such
as blowdown valves, soot blowers, level gauges, external hangers/rods,
insulation, etc. for damage that would need to be addressed at the outage.

Pyrolysis Heaters
Pyrolysis
heaters are similar to steam/methane-reforming heaters. The same
materials are often used for both. There are a few notable
differences. Both Ys and U-bends are used in pyrolysis heaters and
suffer erosion. The reaction in the tubes is usually carburizing and
requires that the surfaces be smooth from boring or honing and that
the material be more resistant to carburization. The material used in
pyrolysis heaters is often a modification of a high-strength material
that is adequate in reforming heaters.
Box-type Heaters
A
box-type heater is a heater whose structural configuration forms a
box. There are many different designs for box-type heaters. These
designs involve a variety of tube coil configurations, including
horizontal, vertical, and arbor configurations.
This type of heater can have locations or
zones of different
heat densities. The size and arrangement of the tubes in a box-type
heater are determined by the type of operation the heater is meant to
perform; for example, crude oil distillation or cracking, the amount
of heating surface required, and the flow rate through the tubes.
Box-type heaters are usually updraft, with gas- or oil-fired burners
located in the end or side wall, the floor or downdraft with the
roof. After the process convection section tubes, auxiliary tubes are
often added to preheat combustion air or to generate or superheat
steam. In Figure 2, the convection section is centered in the upper
portion of the box-type heater and the radiant tubes are on the two
side walls.
Heaters with Vertical Coils, Helical coil, Arbor Coils
Heaters
with Vertical Coils
A
vertical coil heater may be positioned cylindrical or in a
rectangular (box-type heater). Most vertical coil heaters are bottom
fired, with the stack mounted directly on top of the heater.
Downdraft vertical heaters have also been used.
Heaters
with Helical Coils
Helical
coil heaters are cylindrical with the surface of the radiant section
in the form of a coil that spirals up the wall of the heater. They do
not usually have a convection section, but if one is included, the
convection surface may be in the form of a flat spiral or a bank of
horizontal tubes. The stack of a helical coil heater is almost always
mounted directly on top of the heater.
Heaters
with Arbor Coils
Heaters
with arbor or wicket coils are used extensively in catalytic
reforming units for preheat and reheat service and as heaters for
process air or gases. These heaters have a radiant section that
consists of inlet and outlet headers connected with inverted or
upright L or U tubes in parallel arrangement. The convection sections
consist of conventional horizontal tube coils.
What covers under IBR
