Thermo International, an engineering company specializing in induction heating, has unveiled a cost-effective solution to one of the major challenges faced by power plants.
—
Any power plant that relies on industrial boilers also makes use of boiler tubes, which inevitably degrade over time and therefore need replacement. However, as anyone in the industry knows, this removal and replacement process has hitherto been a massive logistical challenge for most power plants.

To counteract this problem, Thermo International is offering its induction heating machines as a means of removing degraded boiler tubes without causing costly damage to the external tube sheet.
Its solution entails the design of a specialized internal coil that can be inserted into the boiler tube to be removed. Once inside, the temperature of the coil will be raised to 2500°F in about 30-90 seconds using an induction heating machine.
“This rapid heating causes the tube to attempt to expand but, since it is constrained by the tube sheet and is heated to a malleable temperature, the tube shrinks,” the company explained.
After reaching a certain level of malleability, a hydraulic puller will be able to extract the tube out easily, ensuring that no damage is caused to the fundamental structure of the tube sheet.
While not a novel technology, induction heating still has numerous industrial applications today, according to Thermo International. “It is also easy to set up, offers a fast time-to-temperature, and delivers exceptional heating efficiency, accuracy, and uniformity in part temperature.”
