Abstract
A process and a device for detecting the occurrence of corrosion during the operation of steam turbines are disclosed, wherein working medium is taken from the steam turbine and partially condensed. The condensate is separated from the remaining steam and the quantities of both the remaining steam and the condensate are determined. The condensate is continuously examined for aggressive materials. The condensate is then subjected to chemical and physical analysis in a test apparatus. To detect corrosivity, a prestressed metal test piece and a metal bursting disc are arranged in a condensate vessel in contact with the condensate.
