Causes of buldging

1. Caused by overheating of the entire thickness of the metal thereby lowering the strength of the metal, which is then deformed (buldge) by the pressure in the boiler.
2. Waterside deposits and flame impingement normally cause bulge.
3. Bulges may also be caused by creep or temperature graduents.
