Discussion on the steam consumption of individual devices
Thread Content
Currently, the steam-powered equipment used by the company does not have flow meters installed at the front of each unit. Currently, it is only possible to obtain the process parameters specified in the equipment’s manual at the time of manufacture (steam pressure, steam consumption per hour), as well as the steam pressure during the actual operation of the equipment. Using these three values, and based on the formula Q=m*H, where m represents the theoretical hourly steam consumption of the equipment and H represents the enthalpy corresponding to the theoretical steam pressure, it is possible to calculate Q1=m1*H1, where m1 is the steam consumption to be estimated and H1 is the enthalpy corresponding to the actual operating pressure of the equipment. Assuming that the required heat amount remains constant, is it possible to directly estimate the actual hourly steam consumption of the equipment? Thank you very much for your guidance!
Same question, are you sending it again......:L
\ud83d\ude04, I chose a section this time
Using this method will result in errors; the enthalpy value should be replaced with latent heat. Because the heat load is equal to steam consumption * (enthalpy of steam – enthalpy of condensed water)
Oh, if it’s just a rough estimate, is that okay? Because according to your algorithm, the temperature of the condensate is also required
In equipment theory, the heat required for operation and the actual heat consumed are generally considered to be equal in calculations. But you need to make sure the formula for calculating heat consumption of your device is correct
