Is there a problem with the steam drum in the steam generator (boiler)?
Thread Content
Today I encountered a high-temperature steam generator that uses an evaporator as its design element (without a steam drum); there is a small gas space at the top for steam to be released from. The conventional design involves a steam drum along with rising and falling tubes for natural circulation. I would like to know if there are any issues with this design that doesn’t use a steam drum Thank you!
The steam space is too small, which easily leads to steam containing water and affects the quality of the steam
Thank you. This is the conversion backend; generally, the temperature of the gas during conversion is around 750-850 degrees
The temperature of the hot gas is generally around 750-850 degrees Celsius
At such high temperatures, there is usually a steam drum
The generated steam is used internally by the equipment, and no specific quality requirements for the steam exist, so there is no problem.
