SAFETY IN AMMONIA REFRIGERATION RELATED TO THREE CASE STUDIES IN WELDING FAILURES.

Author(s) : LINDBORG A.

Summary

THE REFRIGERATION INDUSTRY EXPERIENCES MECHANICAL DAMAGE IN COMPRESSORS AND MANY OTHER COMPONENTS, WHICH SHOWS THE IMPORTANCE OF PAYING INTEREST TO MATERIAL, STEEL ALLOYS SUITABLE FOR -40 DEG C, WELDING CODES AND WELDING QUALITY. OTHER INDUSTRIES, SUCH AS THE NUCLEAR POWER, OIL-RIG, PROCESS AND CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES, HAVE DEVELOPED AND IMPROVED WELDING QUALITY AND WELDING TECHNIQUES, BUT TOO LITTLE WAS DONE IN THE FIELD OF REFRIGERATION. SOME COUNTRIES HAVE, BY LAW, ENFORCED REGULATIONS ON PRESSURE VESSELS, INCLUDING THOSE USED IN REFRIGERATION. THREE CASES OF LOW QUALITY WELDS, WHICH ALL RESULTED IN LONG AND EXPENSIVE PROCEDURES -ONE IS STILL ONGOING -ARE PRESENTED.
