Assessment of mechanical properties of boiler tubes

Central Power Research Institute, Nagpur approached National Metallurgical Laboratory, Jamshedpur for conducting the stress rupture and mechanical properties of the different types of Boiler tubes. They have supplied the tube samples along with the testing parameters such as temperature, stress and test duration for conducting stress rupture tests. With reference to their letter the tensile and flattening tests are carried out at Room temperature. The stress rupture tests are carried out as per their specified test parameters.
