Abstract

Combustion chambers of contemporary power boilers are suspended on hanger roads because of thermal strains. The hangers are placed along the side edges of a rectangular chamber. A tensile force of hanger road has a significant influence on stress state of combustion chambers. A method of tensile force measurements and determine the correct of are tensile force is therefore important. There are presented a novel method of a tensile force's measurements and methodology for determining the distribution of tensile forces.
