It follows that, if steam is generated in the boiler at a high pressure and also distributed at a high pressure, the size of the distribution mains will be smaller than that for a low-pressure system for the same heat load. Figure 10.1.2 illustrates this point.
Read MoreHigh Pressure Condensate Return (HPR) Industrial Steam's HPR is specifically designed for the corrugating industry. The HPR is engineered to reduce energy use by collecting high temperature condensate from the system and safely pumping it back to the steam boiler without allowing any flash loss. In addition to eliminating flash loss, the HPR
Read MoreWhen steam condenses, its volume is dramatically reduced, which results in a localised reduction in pressure. This pressure drop through the system creates the flow of steam through the pipes. The steam generated in the boiler must be conveyed through the pipework …
Read More22.2.3.1 Condensing steam cycle. The condensing steam cycle is shown diagrammatically in Figure 22.8. The fuel is fired in a boiler which converts the heat released from combustion to steam at high pressure and temperature. This steam is then expanded through a turbine for generation …
Read MoreTrevithick was the first to successfully use high-pressure steam (then known as "strong" steam). Until ca. 1800, the weakness of existing boilers coupled with the influence of James Watt had generally restricted steam boilers to very low pressures or "weak" steam.
