What is Managing SCC Risks in Turbines about?

Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) led to the failure of a steam turbine disc at Hinkley Point Power Station in 1969. The disc failed due to SCC initiating and propagating cracks in a keyway. This failure highlighted the risk of SCC for similar turbine designs across the UK. Rather than shutting all turbines down, risk-based inspection was used to categorize turbines based on failure probability and consequence to prioritize inspections. Fracture mechanics techniques help determine failure probability by analy
