In the world of manufacturing, stainless steel is widely recognized for its versatility and durability. One specific application where stainless steel plays a crucial role is in feedwater heaters. These heaters are essential components in power plants, as they preheat the feedwater before it enters the boiler, maximizing efficiency and reducing energy consumption. Among the various types of stainless steel tubes used in feedwater heaters, welded ferritic stainless steel tubes are commonly employed.
The material and specifications for welded ferritic stainless steel tubes for feedwater heaters are defined by the GB/T 30065 standard. This standard provides detailed guidelines for the production and application of these tubes, ensuring their quality and performance. It outlines the essential characteristics, chemical composition, mechanical properties, and other crucial parameters necessary for manufacturing and utilizing these tubes effectively.
Welded ferritic stainless steel tubes for feedwater heaters possess several key features that make them suitable for this specific application. These features include:
Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel inherently resists corrosion due to the presence of chromium in its composition, making it ideal for feedwater heaters where water contact is constant.
High Temperature Resistance: The tubes can withstand high temperatures without undergoing significant deformation or damage, ensuring long-term stability and reliability in feedwater heaters.
Weldability: These tubes exhibit excellent weldability, allowing for seamless and robust connections during fabrication.
Durability: Welded ferritic stainless steel tubes have a long service life and require minimal maintenance, making them a reliable choice for feedwater heater applications.
The chemical composition of welded ferritic stainless steel tubes for feedwater heaters is as follows (Table 1):
| Elements | C | Si | Mn | P | S | Cr | Ni | Ti |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Composition (%) | 0.03 | 0.30 | 1.50 | 0.040 | 0.020 | 10.5-15.0 | 1.00 | 0.020 |

The steel grade used for these welded ferritic stainless steel tubes is GB/T 30065. This grade ensures the tubes meet the specific requirements of feedwater heater applications, including resistance to corrosion, high temperatures, and mechanical stress.
Welded ferritic stainless steel tubes, conforming to the GB/T 30065 standard, find extensive application in feedwater heaters within power plants. These tubes are vital in efficiently preheating the feedwater, reducing energy consumption, and maximizing the overall performance of the power generation system.
While GB/T 30065 is an excellent standard for welded ferritic stainless steel tubes, several alternative grades might be suitable depending on specific application requirements. These alternative grades include but are not limited to ASTM A268, EN 10217-7, and JIS G3459. Manufacturers and engineers should evaluate these grades to determine the most suitable option based on factors such as corrosion resistance, temperature resistance, and mechanical properties.
