🔍 Key Concepts

• heat transfer in boiler tubes and how poor transfer affects metal temperature • difference between deposits/accumulations and the actual cause of tube metal failure • how fireside burning appears and what operating condition makes tubes glow/warp

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: does fireside burning come from a chemical attack, a mechanical deposit, or from metal getting too hot? • Which option describes the underlying condition that directly overheats the tube metal, rather than just a thing that might be present on the tube? • Look for the answer that explains what happens when the inside of the tube is carrying steam/water normally, but the outside is exposed to the flame and cannot shed heat properly.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice describes a direct cause (what actually makes the metal overheat) versus indirect contributing factors. • Decide whether fireside burning is mainly a corrosion problem or a temperature/heat transfer problem. • Check which choice best connects impaired heat transfer on the fireside with metal temperature rising above safe limits.
