What to do if the steam flow is unstable
Thread Content
Gentlemen, I have 2.5 kilograms of saturated steam, but the flow rate is sometimes 2.5 tons per hour and sometimes 4 tons per hour. I want to install a device (such as a storage tank) to control the flow rate and keep it stable. It would be great if saturated steam could turn into water inside the storage tank; in that case, the tank doesn’t need to be very large. If it can’t turn into water, then the tank needs to be quite large. I would like the experts here to tell me: can steam turn into water in a storage tank? If not, what methods can be used to stabilize the steam flow?
Stabilizing the pressure stabilizes the flow rate
Indeed, stabilizing the steam pressure stabilizes the flow rate
Controlling the flow rate through pressure is theoretically feasible, but the customer does not allow an increase in pressure. For energy storage, the pressure difference is too small; it’s a problem.
