Thanks for the constructive replies.
The liner idea makes sense, but with my experience with loose liner failures, I don't want to create a higher susceptability for leaks in order to detect them.
We typically standardize in explosion cladding.

For cladded vessels, if we were to develop a leak under the clad (say from cracking, local defect, or blunt impact by foreign object of the clad during service), what are some of the things you can do to help identify the leak prior to corroding through the steel? I know vessels are typically...
I would avoid strip cladding if possible. It is a maintenance nightmare if your welds fail (i.e. due to fatigue). As cladding is used for corrosion resistance, any product that gets under the cladding will fill in underneath the loose clad and present a difficult corrosion problem where the...
