What scale of production is required for the hydraulic turbine equipment in hydrogenation units? The company is considering adding hydraulic turbine units
It is not recommended to install it if the scale is too small; it is better to use an inverter to save energy. I’m not sure whether it’s hydrogenation refining, reforming, or cracking; in any case, the plant size should be at least 1 million tons. Moreover, frequency conversion drives may not offer cost savings, and hydraulic turbines are expensive if imported, so they’re not suitable.
Aren’t domestic hydraulic turbine manufacturers good enough?
What is your scale? What is the reaction pressure? What is the high-pressure threshold for good design scores?
Please answer the question raised on the fourth floor; a detailed discussion is possible
For large-scale systems using foreign technology, such as those with a capacity of several hundred kW, higher efficiency is achieved. For smaller-scale systems with capacities of just a few dozen kW, domestic technology is quite suitable; however, the stability of operation must be taken into account, as too small differences in flow rates can affect operational stability
600,000 tons of diesel upgraded: high-pressure side at 9.5, low-pressure side at 1.6. With the hydraulic turbine in use, the current consumption of the feed pump can be reduced by 8 units
Generally, for capacities of over 1 million tons, hydraulic turbines combined with motors are used to drive the feed pumps; for smaller scales, it is possible to calculate the amount of power that can be recovered, allowing for independent power generation.
OP, what was the outcome of your reasoning? We also want to refer to it. :handshake
