Advances in Materials Technology for Fossil Power Plants, Proceedings from the Eighth International Conference (EPRI 2016)

The eighth in a series of conferences on the subject of materials for advanced plants, held every three years by EPRI. Boiler, turbine, and balance-of-plant material issues covered include: plant economics, advanced designs, and field experience; new materials development concepts; materials processing of advanced alloys; high-temperature materials used in boilers and turbines in steam power plants (ferritic steels, austenitic steels & alloys, and nickel-based superalloys); boiler tubes, headers, steam pipes, waterwalls, turbine rotors, blades, bolts, casings, valves, and high-temperature components; microstructural evolution and creep; corrosion, coatings, claddings; welding and fabrication; creep, fatigue, creep-fatigue, toughness, and high-temperature design rules.
