2013/2/21 · While there are no standards governing plant steam quality, it is important that the steam is clean, dry and free from boiler carryover. Dirty, wet steam will result in poor heat transfer and potential process control issues. Over a prolonged period, this may affect plant performance, and increase maintenance and operational costs.

Read MoreSteam purity should not be confused with steam quality. Steam quality is a measure of the amount of moisture in the steam. It is expressed as the weight of dry steam in a mixture of steam and water droplets. For example, steam of 99% quality contains 1% liquid water. Carryover is any solid, liquid, or vaporous contaminant that leaves a boiler
Read More2021/10/18 · When steam flows out of the steam boiler, it carries along tiny droplets of water which means the steam has a residual moisture content, i.e. a liquid fraction (1 – 3% of the total mass). This residual moisture content can be reduced to roughly 0.5% of the steam quantity when exiting the boiler, by installing steam dryers for example.

Read MoreFire-tube boilers; contain long steel tubes through which the hot gasses from a furnace pass and around which the water to be converted to steam circulates. Fire-tube boilers, typically have a lower initial cost, are more fuel-efficient, and are easier to operate. Their capacities are up to 25tons/hr and 17.5 kg/ cm2.
Read MoreBoiler efficiency is a measure of how effectively chemical energy in fuel is converted into heat energy in steam going to the turbines. The largest boiler efficiency loss is sensible heat lost as hot flue gases (and ash) exit the boiler. Unburned carbon losses equate to the fraction of combustible fuel which is not burned in the boiler.
