Device load fluctuation range

2009-03-18View Original

Thread Content

The load fluctuation range of the device is 40% to 125% of its designed capacity. The turn-down ratio is between 40%~125% of design capacity. Do any of you have any good suggestions for translating this sentence?

The load fluctuation range of the device is 40% to 125% of its designed capacity. The plant load fluctuation range shall be within 40%~125% of the design capacity.

Refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turndown_ratio; the turndown ratio can be found there

For the issues in those two posts, please refer to the design documents cited on floor 8 in my post on ludinggi: http://bbs.hcbbs.com/viewthread.php?tid=391086&highlight= This post was last edited by echommm on 2009-3-18 at 15:27.]

The plant’s operational range is between 40% and 125% of its design capacity.

The turndown ratio refers to the ratio of the maximum load to the minimum load

A passage from a device design document: The design capacity of the plant is 100,000 metric tons per year of XX product, based on 8,000 operating hours per year; the flexible operating capacity ranges from 120% to 60% of the design capacity.............................. The turndown for this unit is 60% of the design capacity. The unit’s annual operating time is 8,000 hours. The value of 60% could also refer to the range of 120% to 60%; I think “turndown” still implies a reduction in capacity

I personally also tend to think that the turndown is the minimum operational load. It is the minimum amount that can be lower than the design load. Here’s another question: what term is used to describe the maximum operating load, when it exceeds 100%, that is, when the system is operating under overload? Turnup? ? ? Haha

Overloading should be expressed as “overload”, but “turnup” implies ‘reaching a certain speed’, so it can also be used to describe overloading

The turndown ratio allows operation between 40-125% of the design capacity; this is how it is translated in our documents

This translation is fine; using \"allow\" works as well. Here, the turndown ratio still refers to the ratio of maximum load to minimum load.
