How to calculate the balance of water and steam generation in industrial boilers
Thread Content
How is the daily water consumption in the boiler room calculated? How are the values for daily fresh water consumption, continuous drainage volume, fixed drainage volume, water used for softening water backwashing, and water used for steam production calculated?
According to the flow meter, the steam flow rate is higher than that of the feedwater flow rate; by subtracting the feedwater flow rate from the steam flow rate, the amount of drain water and continuous discharge can be determined. Of course, the errors associated with the flow meter also need to be taken into account
Are there any other methods without a flow meter?
The business environment is currently very tough; efforts are being made to cut costs in every area. Several proposals for flow meters have not been approved
The blowdown rate is calculated based on the boiler design calculations
Oh, this method is feasible; I wonder if the error is large?
It is designed to have a specific discharge rate, but in actual production, internal leakage of the valves, as well as variations in the opening degree and duration of the regular discharge operations during each shift, can also result in different discharge amounts; however, the differences are not significant
The blowdown rate can be determined based on the chloride or silicate content in the feedwater and boiler water; the total feedwater volume is equal to the amount of waste water discharged plus the amount of main steam
