Accordingly, this study comparatively analyzed the impact of flexible operation methods on the lifetime of boiler headers. Finite element analysis models were created to analyze stress in transient operation conditions, and fatigue rupture life was derived using fatigue test data from previous research. Then, as a result of assessing the fatigue life according to design criteria, the low load operation mode was confirmed to have a fatigue life 2.57 to 4.61 times longer than the start & stop mode.
