“…It is obvious that many factors, such as fuel composition (including Cl, S) [1,3,40], stoichiometry, flue gas composition (e.g., CO, H 2 S, HCl, SO 2 ) [41,42], and the chemical composition of ash deposits on the tube surfaces [1,3,[42][43][44][45], play a significant role in the high-temperature corrosion process. Moreover, the corrosion history from the period of long term boiler operation may impact the present corrosion rate [46].…”
