Abstract

Basic function of calorifier system is to supply warm water to the vessel. The heater used in the calorifier system plays a very important role in its reliability. The failure mechanism of heater are compared with accelerated life test. The main cause of failed heater is pitting corrosion occurred between the surface of heater and spacer. To prevent the corrosion failure from heater, material of spacer replaces metal(SUS 304) with polymer (Acryl). The life of redesigned heater can guarantee 2.47years of B10 life under the worst condition.
