The feedwater heaters are critical components in a nuclear power plant. As the operation years of heaters go by, the maintenance costs required for continuous operation increase. Integral drains cooler is the separate heat exchanger combined in the heater shell. The integral drains cooler must be isolated from the other zones. The integral drains cooler must be free from leakage and the entrance into the zone be sealed against the entrance of steam from the condensing zone. Cause of tubes leakage since tubes replacement is the same as the cause before tubes replacement. Therefore, feedwater refurbishment method was selected by heater internal structure condition.

In this paper, the effect of steel fiber-reinforced cement composite (SFRCC) on damage resistance of steel tube member. Test results show that the cumulative energy dissipation of SFRCC specimen was about 14% higher than that of Con specimen.
