Abstract
The STS310S tube has excellent heat transfer ability and is widely used as the material for heat transfer tubes in heat exchange devices. Mixtures of gas and water flow inside the tube whereas hot flame flows outside it. In this environment, the material of the tube may undergo embrittlement, which can cause leakage. Cracks can propagate from the inside of the tube to its outside and result in brittle fracture. This study identified the cause of brittle fracture in the STS310S tube through experiments and discussion, and proposed solutions to prevent fracture.
