  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Failure Analysis Report: Geothermal Heating System Components, Oregon Institute of Technology, Klamath Falls, Oregon Author: Mitchell, D.A. Year: 1979 The results are presented of an examination of 17 samples obtained from various components of the subject geothermal heating system. The samples obtained for this study were selected to represent the several materials of construction and equipment ages of the various components in this system. For purposes of this report, the samples have been grouped into three categories by material: ferrous, non-ferrous and non-metallic. Failures in these components have taken the form of leakage at solder joints, tubing perforation, scaling, or valve seizure. Most components evaluated in this examination have been in service for 14 years. This work documents these failures, discusses their causes and recommends possible remedial action Title: Failure Analysis Report: Geothermal Heating System Components, Oregon Institute of Technology, Klamath Falls, Oregon Author: Mitchell, D.A.
