| Description: | The major concern of this book is high-temperature corrosion; a form of surface disintegration that leads to high running costs, as well as to environmental and/or security problems. The papers contained herein describe both fundamental, and more applied, aspects of the subject which are relevant to today’s industrial systems, with the emphasis being placed on static or aviation gas turbines, as well as on power-generation technologies (coal or oil burning, coal gasification, nuclear power, fuel cells), incineration and the processing industries. Depending upon the specific topic, the reader will find many up-to-date theoretical treatments and mechanistic models of alloy degradation, as well as more practical means for measuring and characterizing in-service corrosion. This book will be an important source of data and ideas for researchers, lecturers and engineers; making it an efficient tool for solving high-temperature corrosion problems. |
