Systems and methods are disclosed herein that generally involve a double pinch criterion for optimization of regenerative Rankine cycles. In some embodiments, operating variables such as bleed extraction pressure and bleed flow rate are selected such that a double pinch is obtained in a feedwater heater, thereby improving the efficiency of the Rankine cycle. In particular, a first pinch point is obtained at the onset of condensation of the bleed and a second pinch point is obtained at the exit of the bleed from the feedwater heater. The minimal approach temperature at the first pinch point can be approximately equal to the minimal approach temperature at the second pinch point. Systems that employ regenerative Rankine cycles, methods of operating such systems, and methods of optimizing the operation of such systems are disclosed herein in connection with the double pinch criterion.

A steam turbine installation that has a steam turbine, a steam generator and a feed water pre-heating unit operated by process steam is provided. The steam turbine has an overload bypass line with which main steam can be fed to the feed water pre-heating unit between the steam turbine input and the extraction point during overload operation of the steam turbine, wherein the feed water pre-heating unit has an auxiliary extraction line that is connected to the overload bypass line in such a way that process steam can be extracted from the steam turbine during partial load operation of the steam turbine and added to the feed water pre-heating unit for the additional pre-heating of feed water.

Aspects relate to an energy recovery unit comprising a vessel having a condensate inlet and a condensate outlet and a fluid feed line defining a fluid path. First and second heat exchangers are located within the vessel and are arranged to transfer heat from flash vapor and condensate respectively, to fluid in the fluid feed line. The energy recovery unit can be used to recover waste energy from condensate and flash steam and use it to pre-heat process water, such as boiler feed water.

A heat exchange system for steam returning from industrial processors to a pressurized receiver for return to a boiler with recovery of the thermal energy in the spent steam wherein the flow of water from a flash condenser connected to processor traps is regulated by the level of water in a water sink in the flash condenser for maximizing heat exchange and minimizing flash steam loss.
摘要:
A system for recovering drain which recovers two or more flows or drain of different temperatures, which is applied to a generating plant provided with feed-water heaters in which drain is recovered into a condensation system downstream from a condenser through a drain tank by a drain pump and which comprises a high temperature recovered drain inlet, which is at high temperature and contains much flush steam, and a low temperature drain inlet. The high temperature recovered drain inlet is positioned at a lower part and the low temperature side drain inlet is positioned above the former. This system effects efficient degassing of drain which has high content of dissolved oxygen and efficient control of dissolved oxygen.

A preheating system for preheating fluid medium to be fed into the HRSG is disclosed. The system includes a feed line and a recirculation line. The feed line is adapted to feed the fluid medium to a Low Pressure Economizer (LPE) of the HRSG. The feed line is adapted to be adjoined to an inlet of the LPE, and an outlet of the LPE enables therefrom the flow of the fluid medium in further portion of the HRSG. The recirculation line is adapted to be connected between the outlet and the inlet of the LPE, in parallel to LPE to recirculate the fluid medium to the LPE. A particular method of preheating using such a system is equally disclosed.
