Seeking expert help with heat source calculation
Thread Content
The following conditions are known: T(°C) P(Mpa) G(kg/h) Q(KW). Conditions for the steam source required for A: 143, 0.4, 3000, 1700. Conditions for the heat source for B: 150, 0.35, 4100. The steam used for B is at 0.9 Mpa and 250°C; it is high-temperature condensate resulting from the heating of other materials. Can B replace A?
Or, if B is 0.9 Mpa, what is the state of the steam at 250°C after being used to heat other materials? Is it water or steam? If it’s steam, then it will definitely meet the requirements; what about water?
Recalculate whether heat source B can meet the requirements based on the load of the required heat source. If we consider only the information regarding A and B, B cannot replace A, as heat source A releases heat through latent heat, while B releases heat through sensible heat; the difference between the two is quite large.
