Abstract:
This collecting apparatus collects foreign matter mixed in condensate in/from a condenser of a steam turbine plant, and comprises a first foreign matter collector and an in-condenser collector. The first foreign matter collector is provided on an upstream side of a condensate pump in a pipe connecting a drain outlet provided to the bottom portion of the condenser and the condensate pump to each other, has an opening having a first dimension, and collects foreign matter while passing the condensate therethrough. The in-condenser collector is provided inside the condenser, has an opening having a second dimension larger than the first dimension, and collects foreign matter while passing the condensate in the condenser therethrough toward the drain outlet.
Abstract:
A steam heat exchanger includes a composite header. A first-stage steam inlet header and a second-stage steam inlet header are arranged above the composite header, and the composite header is in communication with the second-stage steam inlet header by means of a transition pipe; and further comprising two groups of heat exchange tubes or heat exchange plates, wherein inlet and outlet ends of a first group of heat exchange tubes or heat exchange plates are respectively connected to the first-stage steam inlet header and the composite header, and inlet and outlet ends of a second group of heat exchange tubes or heat exchange plates are respectively connected to the second-stage steam inlet header and the composite header.
Abstract:
A process for extracting a condensable vapour from a supplied gas, comprising the steps of: i) condensing the condensable vapour by cooling the supplied gas at a condensing surface, such that the supplied gas is divided into at least one condensed fraction and a product gas; while ii) removing the at least one condensed fraction from the condensing surface by mechanical scraping means.
Abstract:
A heater assembly for an aerosol-generating system is provided, including a heater element; a reservoir including aerosol-generating liquid; and a condenser configured to condense excess vapors generated in the heater assembly, such that condensate is at least partially conveyed back into the reservoir. A method of manufacturing a heater assembly for an aerosol-generating system is also provided.
Abstract:
A deaerator includes a tank, a spray unit, a steam supply unit, a bleed unit and a discharge pipe. The spray unit is disposed at an upper portion of the tank and configured to supply water to the tank. The steam supply unit is disposed inside the tank to supply steam to the tank. The bleed unit is disposed at the upper portion of the tank and adjacent to the spray unit. The bleed unit is configured to bleed air from an inside of the tank. The discharge pipe is configured to discharge water without air to an outside of the tank.
Abstract:
A multistage pressure condenser includes, a high pressure chamber and a low pressure chamber, a pressure partition wall which partitions an inner portion of the low pressure chamber to an upper portion and a lower portion, a cooling pipe group which condenses low pressure side steam to low pressure side condensate, a reheat chamber positioned in the lower portion of the low pressure chamber and in which the low pressure side condensate which flows down through the porous plate is stored, high pressure side steam introduction portion for introducing high pressure side steam in the high pressure chamber to the reheat chamber, liquid-film forming portion which guides the low pressure side condensate which flows down through the porous plate to the reheat chamber while dispersing the low pressure side condensate on a surface, and air feeder for promoting the flow of the high pressure side steam.
Abstract:
A system for recovering flash steam and condensate includes a flash steam recovery unit for recovering steam from a fluid containing flash steam and condensate, a condensate recovery unit positioned below the flash steam recovery unit to receive the condensate by gravity, wherein the condensate recovery unit is operated by pressurized pumping means which are adapted for selectively receiving the condensate into the condensate recovery unit, discharging the condensate to a process equipment through an outlet steam trapping unit, and discharging the exhaust gas via an exhaust gas outlet.
Abstract:
A heat recovery vapor trap is provided for removal of vapor condensate from a container, while preventing any appreciable escape of vapor, and for achieving beneficial heat recovery from said condensate prior to temperature degradation associated with depressurization, whereby useful heating to much higher temperature is possible. The trap is indirect acting, and is preferably mechanically actuated by a float.
Abstract:
A trap mechanism is provided in the middle of an exhaust passage through which an exhaust gas, which is exhausted from a film formation device body that forms a thin film on the surface of a workpiece (W), flows, and recovers a gas to be collected that is contained in the exhaust gas by cooling and liquefying the gas to be collected. The trap mechanism includes: a housing having a gas inlet and a gas outlet; a partitioning member that partitions the inside of the housing into retention spaces; communication paths that communicate the retention spaces with one another; and cooling jackets that cool the communication paths to cool the exhaust gas. With this structure, the exhaust gas is adiabatically expanded while being cooled, and the gas to be collected is efficiently cooled and liquefied.
Abstract:
A condenser includes a high pressure side condenser, a high pressure side cooling tube bank, a high pressure side hot well, a low pressure side condenser, a low pressure side cooling tube bank, a pressure shroud provided inside the low pressure side condenser, a low pressure side hot well, high pressure steam introducing portion, low pressure side condensate introducing portion, a flash box which communicates with at least one of the high pressure side hot well and the low pressure side hot well, flashes a heater drain from a feed water heater, and urges at least one of the high pressure side hot well and the low pressure side hot well to recover the flashed heater drain, and a flash steam path which introduces flash steam generated inside the flash box into at least one of the high pressure side hot well and the low pressure side hot well.
