How to deal with water hammer in the condensate pipeline?
Thread Content
A new reforming unit has been installed, and the condensate transfer pipeline is constantly subject to water hammer; I’m not sure how to deal with this issue. Does anyone have any good ideas?
So, it’s necessary to start with temperature control; there aren’t many other solutions.
Try finding an exhaust port and using it for venting
Check whether the delivery temperature is too high, and also see if the pressure is high as well; if not, install a buffer tank.
The temperature inside is too high; water and steam cause water hammer. drier
Or install a water cooler for further condensation, add a water tank, and use a pump to send the liquid out
1. Add a water feeder to supply water at the low point; 2. Adjust the steam temperature and pressure, if possible, to make it saturated steam or superheated steam. If the 3 pipelines cannot be changed, try to adjust the steam flow rate.
Try turning on the drain valve of the condensate tank
There is a large difference between the delivery temperature and the external network temperature
There could be two reasons for this situation: first, the front-end steam trap is leaking severely. II. Flashing in the pipeline due to pressure drop during back-end transportation. First, it is necessary to determine what the cause is.
First, identify the main cause, and then deal with it based on the actual situation!
