Abstract

In situ metallography (Replica test) is required when the thermal creep damage must be evaluated on industrial metallic equipment specially in power plant stations. In order to prevent catastrophic accidents (As example. The explosion of H01 furnace in Homs refinery station, January-2018). 

The metallurgical damage to be evaluated in metallic equipment could be classified as: graphitization, grain growth, cavities, micro cracks, etc.

  This paper shows the results of field work using in situ metallography (Replica test)according to standard method DIN 54150 and evidence of the reliability of the results for representing the bulk microstructure of the metallic component, and evaluate the results according to the VGB-TW 507 Standard.
