Calculate the steam flow rate based on the water flow rate and calorific value
Thread Content
I would like to ask everyone if there are any of you who work in the field of thermal engineering. For steam flow rate, is there a way to estimate it? It is by using the water flow rate, temperature difference, and calorific value to ultimately calculate the steam flow rate. I want to know what this formula is, and also how accurate the flow rate value obtained through this calculation is
In the product separation distillation system, 1 ton of steam corresponds to approximately 50 tons of circulating water; in other words, for every 1 ton of steam consumed by the reboiler at the bottom of the tower, the condenser at the top of the tower requires roughly 50 tons of circulating water (except when the heat from condensation is recovered and reused).
1. Does the “water” mentioned in the question refer to steam condensate or deoxygenated water from which steam is generated? Or something else? 2. From the perspective of heat balance and mass balance, it is feasible to calculate steam based on the physical properties of water in different phases and the mass flow rate of water. 3. The problem is how to accurately measure the amount of water that is lost; this is the key to obtaining accurate values for steam flow rates. 4. In the case of water involved in heat exchange processes, accurate physical property parameters and flow rate data are also necessary
