Abstract
The intent of this paper is to highlight the enhancements in latest Performance Test Codes (ASME PTC 19.3), evaluate the causes of failures occurred in thermowells and define the importance of optimal thermowell design.
Failure of a thermowell can have catastrophic consequences, which results in loss of containment and affects the plant safety, integrity & profitability. Hence, an efficient design, the proper selection and the operation within limits are essential to achieve 100% HSE and ensure a fit-for-future service.
