When To Use Thermal Indicator Data ARTICLE Infrared data and thermal couple data are two different information streams. As such, each stream has different ideal use cases in fired heater inspections. Thermal Couple Overview Thermal couples are primarily designed to set process controls of equipment for a desired output. Thermal couple indicator data is commonly used as an indicator of a detrimental condition, such as internal fouling, or some other condition that may cause high temperature damage or failure in a fired heater. This data can be used to make short-term adjustments to reduce the effect of high temperatures. While short term adjustments can be made to reduce the effect of potential high temperatures, plant operators should immediately: Take steps to verify the thermal indicator data Return the heater to normal operation (as soon as the data can be verified). It often happens that, in the event of a high temperature alarm on one thermal indicator, an operator may remove a nearby burner from service to reduce the thermal indicator temperature. But doing so can create two issues: Issue one. The first major and immediate concern is that an area of localized fouling is present that cannot be seen by this or another thermal indicator, and that the operations team is unaware of ongoing damage to the furnace. Issue two. The second issue is long-term, and is that imbalanced heater operation might be attributed to increased fouling rates and create the very problem the operations team is trying to counter. Infrared Overview Infrared data, unlike thermal indicator data, is primarily a visual data stream. Temperature reporting made with infrared data can provide an illustration of the thermal profile of the equipment, with an emphasis on protecting tube metal from excessive temperatures. In equipment with localized internal fouling, the trend information provided by infrared data may not agree with the trend information provided by thermal indicator data. This discrepancy in data could be caused by an area of localized fouling that isn’t near a thermal indicator or heat concentrations due to poor draft conditions or burner impingements. [Related reading: Improving the Use of Infrared for Fired Heater Inspections—Five Factors that Impact Your Ability to Compare Infrared and Thermal Data] When comparing the two datasets, only a generalized comparison should be made in order to indicate the overall health of the equipment and operation of the thermal indicators as a whole. For example, while infrared data might show a nominal tube skin temperature in a range of 850 F. to 1,250 F, thermal indicator data might show a range of only 850 F. to 950 F. This discrepancy indicates that nominal tube skin temperatures of approximately 850 F. to 950 F. are acceptable for verifying that both the thermal indicator and the infrared data streams are correct. The higher temperatures are then noted visually with patterns in order to determine whether they might be caused by localized fouling or heater operations. But infrared data should not be used to “bias” thermal indicator data. Thermal indicator data could be wrong due to the typical failure mechanism of thermal couples, in which separation of the shielding or unseating of the thermal indicator causes the reading to be indicative of firing rather than tube skin temperatures. If this happens, the data stream should be considered corrupt and unreliable, and it should be removed from the DCS. Five Tips for Deciding When to Use Infrared Data vs. When to Use Thermal Indicator Data Now that we’ve covered both thermal indicator and infrared data, let’s take a look at five tips for when to use each in a fired heater inspection. Tip 1. Surface Area This tip favors infrared data over thermal indicator data. Infrared can measure many times more surface area than thermal indicator data can. Infrared is better for covering larger surface areas because it is limited only by view and the availability of a clean surface. To make the advantage of infrared clear when it comes to coverage, most infrared inspections cover anywhere from 60% to 95% of tube surfaces while most thermal indicator applications cover less than .05%. 2. Visual Pattern Recognition This tip favors infrared data over thermal indicator data. Experienced infrared technicians will recognize patterns and offer explanations. On the other hand, thermal indicator data only offers a single point data, which doesn’t provide enough information for interpretation. Tip 3. Unaffected by Fuel Gas or Box Conditions This tip favors thermal indicator data over infrared data. When working properly, thermal indicator data is unaffected by fuel gas or box conditions. The same can’t be said for infrared data. Tip 4. Thermal Indicator Data Is Extremely Repeatable This tip favors thermal indicator data over infrared data. Since thermal indicators don’t move they offer an extremely high degree of repeatability. This means that thermal indicator data is constant in location and condition, allowing for easy interpretations of trending comparisons. On the other hand, since infrared data is visual it makes repeatable measurement at exact locations difficult, since variables in fuel gas and firing rates might cause a discrepancy or error from one reading to the next. To this point, any comparison or trending made with infrared data should be done independently and as a whole. Point comparison is not valid, since the user would be trying to take independent single point data and string them into a graph or chart typically used for repeatable controlled data streams. The primary information in the form of temperature as a result of infrared inspection is: The maximum tube skin (i.e., is it in limit?) The delta T from nominal (i.e., how bad is the internal fouling indication?) Growth predicted on a limited basis, such as at a known hotspot, by averaging all data together can be easily skewed due to the process by which the technician chooses the locations for temperature measurement. These locations are chosen based on the highest temperatures, to illustrate thermal patterns, to illustrate internal fouling indications, and are limited by tube surface conditions, angle, distance, view, and firing. It’s important to note that often these conditions will change in short periods of time. Tip 5. The Calculation of OD Scale Temperature This tip favors thermal indicator data over infrared data. Often, we see instances where someone has “calculated” the temperature rise of scale using one of several methods. But there is actually no reliable way to calculate the temperature rise of OD scale in relation to tube skin temperature. No method can account for variables in the system such as whether it is bonded or disbonded, thickness, oxide vs. soot, or salts. In fact, calculating OD scale temperature is considered extremely dangerous and should not be performed. Instead, the best approach is OD cleaning and maintenance. Improving The Use Of Infrared For Fired Heater Inspections: Five Factors That Impact Your Ability To Compare Infrared And Thermal Data ARTICLE It is common practice for inspectors to use thermal indicators to validate infrared data and vice versa. But it’s important to note that these comparisons have limitations. As with the rest of the heater, tube surface is a major factor in determining where an infrared reading may be taken. If there is not a clean tube surface at a thermal indicator, then no direct comparison can be made with infrared data. Despite the fact that these comparisons can be made at times, and within limitations, infrared data should never be manipulated to conform to thermal indicator data. Once the inspection is complete, and a trend is noted that suggests the data may be skewed high or low by multiple thermal indicator locations, then and only then should a correction be applied. Five Factors that Affect Your Ability to Compare Infrared and Thermal Data If there is a discrepancy between your infrared data and your thermal indicator data, a common reaction is to disregard the higher temperatures, or force the infrared data to match thermal indicator readings. But ignoring the discrepancy could mean ignoring high temperatures that could be damaging the fire heater equipment. That is why it’s important to take notice of these discrepancies, and ask yourself: Why is this happening? Below are five factors that affect your ability to compare infrared and thermal indicator data. Use these to help you troubleshoot what might be going on when there is a discrepancy between the two. 1. Internal fouling Internal fouling is the most common cause for discrepancies between thermal indicator and infrared data. An image showing localized fouling concentrations near a properly operating thermal couple. Tubes were OD blasted prior to start-up and in operation within approximately one week. Internal fouling can also be very hard to identify using only thermal indicators, which means that it may go undetected if infrared isn’t being used in addition to thermal indicators. Here’s why. In the event you have localized fouling issues, it is 99 times out of 100 not anywhere near a thermal indicator. If you have a heater with 100 tubes at 40 feet in length and 10 thermal indicators, you are essentially measuring less than 1 foot of tube surface in 4,000 feet (or about .025%). And even if the fouling is within a few inches of a thermal indicator, the thermal indicator may not actually see the temperature increase because the delta T from the reference (i.e., the coldest tube skin temperature) in each area indicates how severe internal fouling may be. On the other hand, infrared data has the potential to measure/observe up to 100% of the radiant section tubes,* vastly improving your coverage for data collection. *Depending on heater configuration and port locations. Internal fouling example—Thermal indicator data vs. infrared data Here is an example of localized fouling and thermal indicator readings: Key points: Thermal indicator: The DCS board showed the thermal indicator reading was the highest in the heater at 1,018 F. Infrared: A blind comparison showed infrared at 1,019 F. and the adjacent tube area at 1,179 F. Delta: A 160 F. delta T is observed in just about 8 inches of tube length. 2. Tube surface condition Tube surface condition is often a major factor in erroneous infrared data. In this reformer heater, severe OD scale limits tube inspection to just a few spots. Variances seen are the result of the cleanest tube, bonded scale, and disbonded scale. Scale and oxidation can vary the difference between the actual tube skin and reported tube skin temperatures by anywhere from 20 F to several hundred degrees F. The impact of tube surface conditions makes it crucial to have strong visual interpretation and to conduct correct location selection. Here are our recommended best practices to address tube surface conditions on data collection: Perform reporting and inspection in grey scale to improve the ability to resolve OD scale from ID fouling. Avoid the use of color images for heater internals. Conduct OD cleaning at maintenance periods to return the best data possible during the next run (this is an essential practice to ensure good data collection). 3. Fuel gas contamination Fuel gas contamination can skew infrared data to the high side. An indirect comparison of the data will show a trend that all infrared readings are potentially high and the data may be adjusted. To prevent this anomaly, the plant can provide consistent fuel gas to all heaters at all times. But it’s very unlikely that a plant will actually be able to do this. Therefore, if at all possible, technicians must respond to fuel gas contamination on a case-by-case basis. 4. Poor burner operation Poor burner operation is another potential cause for discrepancies between thermal indicator and infrared data. The arrows show local heat concentration due to poor burner operation. Note that no thermal couple is present in the area. High Delta T. in the center roof area is an indication of either burners impinging on roof tubes or poor draft conditions resulting in heat pooling. Here are some additional factors related to poor burner operation that could cause also discrepancies in the data: Fouled tips O2 levels Draft conditions Burners being in/out of service Often if a thermal indicator is reading high in an area, operations will remove a local burner form service. But this is not a permanent solution, and should only be done until further analysis can be made with infrared, since the poor burner operation may be masking internal fouling indications and/or creating conditions that will lead to the growth of localized fouling. 5. Improperly installed or malfunctioning thermal couple The improper installation or functioning of a thermal couple is the final factor that can impact your ability to compare infrared and thermal indicator data. It is often the case that thermal indicator shielding, cables, and clips have not been properly installed, or that a need to change the brand or type of thermal indicator has not been addressed in the DCS system. An easy way to address these issues is to ask a representative from the manufacturer to be present throughout installation. The representative can then observe the entire implementation and validate that the procedure has been carried out correctly. The Unique Value Of Infrared For Fired Heater Inspections: Roadblocks To Infrared Adoption And How To Overcome Them WHITE PAPER Infrared technology has the potential to radically transform fired heater inspections. But infrared adoption has been held back in industries that could benefit from its use, such as the Petrochemical industry, by a lack of awareness of its benefits and by a lack of training in how to analyze infrared data. The first problem—awareness—will be addressed over time, as articles like this one circulate and people become more familiar with the depth of data infrared can provide. The second problem—a lack of training in analyzing and understanding infrared data—is the focus of this paper. The Value of Infrared Data for Fired Heater Inspections Infrared technology can allow inspectors to observe and document the thermal profile of a fired heater unlike any other method. Using infrared, inspectors can locate several different thermal anomalies that impact the performance of heaters, such as: Heat concentrations Imbalance Hot gas impingement Internal fouling (the major contributing factor to tube damage) In addition to providing a greater depth of data, which can in turn help locate many different types of thermal anomalies (such as those listed above), infrared provides both reliability and process-related benefits to fired heater inspections. For reliability benefits, infrared data can provide the best available temperatures for each area of a heater in order to protect the tube material. In fact, the primary responsibility of an infrared technician is reliability—operational data is secondary. For process-related benefits, infrared can identify internal fouling that will not be caught by tube temperatures alone, since tube temperatures could be operating within their limits while fouling is still occurring. This early identification of internal fouling can inform the need for process changes, and help avoid unplanned outages. Infrared data can also help processes by discounting failing thermal indicators. Often, as a thermal indicator fails it will read high, causing operations to limit the heater duty unnecessarily. Using infrared data, these thermal indicators can be safely deleted from the system, thus improving the overall process. Why Infrared Data Is Often Poorly Understood in Fired Heater Inspections When presented properly, infrared data is fairly easy to understand by most everyone on a maintenance team. But correct presentation requires correct analysis, and this analysis is often not taking place due to a lack of experience. And this shortage of experience is especially true for the use of infrared in fired heater inspections. On average, a typical infrared technician will have less than 5 years of experience, and much of that experience will not be with fired equipment. The problem is compounded by the fact that fired heater inspections have unique considerations for infrared data interpretation, and this means that skills learned by infrared technicians in other scenarios do not translate directly to fired heater scenarios. Why doesn’t experience with infrared in other inspections translate to fired heater inspections? Because the correct interpretation of an infrared image in a fired heater inspection should allow a technician to choose temperature locations based on heater conditions—not simply directing plant personnel to a specific “spot” on a tube (as might be the case with other inspection scenarios). Unique Considerations for Using Infrared in Fired Heater Inspections In choosing the right location for measurement when conducting a fired heater inspection using infrared, technicians must consider these additional data points: Tube surface Reflected energy Flame location Flame pattern Distance Angle After collecting the data, comparisons in the profile of the image must then be made visually to determine whether the temperature locations are representative of the rest of the tubes in the nearby area. Unfortunately, it is often the case that, due to a lack of experience, an infrared technician will fall back on training that is relevant in other inspections—but not in fired heater inspections. And this reliance on those other scenarios will lead the technician to choose the highest temperatures in any given location, not realizing that the temperatures at these locations could be impacted by Outside Diameter (OD) conditions, including scale, oxidation, or fuel gas contaminants. An experienced infrared technician will ignore these higher temperatures in determining the locations to provide the best available tube temperature data. On the other hand, an inexperienced technician will focus on the high temperature areas, reporting them to operations engineers, who will in turn assume that these high temperatures can be accounted for by scale while discounting anomalies without thinking to ask whether the technician has accounted for OD tube conditions. To put the point in plain terms, an infrared technician’s interpretation of the infrared image and thermal patterns are often as important—if not more important—than the temperature data provided. First Ever Combination Of Drones And Manned Rope Access Used In Complex Oil Refinery Inspection PRESS RELEASE BATON ROUGE, LA, Feb. 26, 2021—Premium Inspection & Testing (PIT) conducted a first-of-its-kind internal coke drum inspection at an oil refinery using a combination of drone technology and manned rope access, resulting in $250,000 in savings for its client. Inspection experts from PIT were recently asked to conduct an internal inspection of a coke drum at an oil refinery in Texas without using scaffolding. Scaffolding is typically constructed for inspectors to stand on so that they can see the areas they are inspecting up close. Because scaffolding is expensive and time-consuming to put up and take down, personnel at the refinery were hoping to avoid using it. Inspectors from PIT proposed using a method that had never been tried before for this kind of inspection: a combination of drone technology and manned rope access within the coke drum. “Premium has years of experience performing inspections via rope access, having clocked a total of 2.2 million safe hours on ropes with zero accidents,” says Danny Landry, Premium’s VP of Business Development & Marketing. “We also have deep experience using drones to collect visual data for inspections, so we were excited to agree to take on the job without building scaffolding.” The drone used in the inspection was Flyability’s Elios 2, which has a unique cage design that was created specifically for inspections in confined spaces. For the rope access part of the inspection, PIT used its internal team of certified inspectors, who have years of experience rappelling and climbing inside various types of assets for the purposes of conducting inspections. Having 360 degree access by ropes meant the PIT team could collect more data than if they were standing on scaffolding. “When using scaffolding, you only get about 25% inspection coverage on an asset. But with a combination of drone and rope access, you get about 95% coverage,” Landry says. For the coker inspection, the PIT team used the Elios 2 to collect visual data inside the coker, which was used to make sure it was clean and safe for the ropes team to enter. The drone’s visual data was also processed by automated crack detection algorithms, helping to pinpoint possible defects within the coker that the ropes team could investigate further. Next, the ropes team set up and entered the coker, executing a variety of inspection tests that could only be performed in person, including a phased array test and a liquid penetrant test. Premium’s hybrid drone/rope access approach to the internal coker inspection ultimately saved the refinery $250,000 from not having to pay for temporary scaffolding. This novel drones and rope access approach also significantly reduced downtimes for the coker, cutting time needed for the inspection from 30 days to just 7 days, which helped the refinery realize even further savings. UPCOMING WEBINAR—Premium Inspection & Testing will be hosting a webinar on using drones and rope access together for inspections on Tuesday, March 2nd at 12:00pm Central Time.
