Inspect Steam Valves for Stellite Delamination
Stellite liberation from large valves installed in high-pressure (HP) and hot reheat (HRH) steam systems serving F-class combined cycles has emerged as an important industry concern. EPRI has established a committee on “Cracking and Disbonding of Hardfacing Alloys in Combined-Cycle Plant Valves” to dig into the details. The work, funded by several sponsors, began early this year. John Shingledecker (jshingledecker@epri.com), the technical manager for this program, said the project timeline is estimated at 14 months.

EPRI’s Guideline on Chemistry for Fossil Units with Air-cooled Condensers (ACCs)
This paper provides the results of the first worldwide survey of a number of fossil and combined cycle/HRSG plants with air-cooled condensers (ACCs). It includes documentation of the surface condition of the duct surfaces, defining serious corrosion/flow accelerated corrosion regions and guidelines for operating plants with ACCs.

The Future of Gas-Fired Generation in North America
The editors of Power Engineering sat down with three executives to discuss the transition to gas-fired generation in the U.S., the technology, and the operations and maintenance challenges related to a substantial increase in capacity factors for gas-fired plants. Executives participating in this year's roundtable discussion on natural gas were from American Electric Power, the Electric Power Research Institute and GE Power & Water.
