HRSG Function


 The exhaust gas from the combustion rotary engine becomes the warmth supply for the Rankine cycle portion of the combined of a cycle. Steam is generated in the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). The HRSG recovers the waste heat on the market in the combustion rotary engine exhaust gas. 
The recovered heat is employed to generate steam at high pressure and hot temperature, and also the steam is then accustomed generate power in the steam boiler/generator.

 The HRSG is largely a device composed of a series of preheaters (economizers), evaporator, reheaters, and superheaters. The HRSG also has supplemental firing in the duct that raises the gas temperature and mass flow.

 This section is meant to produce rotary engine operators with a basic understanding of the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) design and operation. the facility generation block of the power produces electric power in 2 separate islands:

 The first island inside the combined-cycle power block is that the combustion rotary engine generator set.
The second island is that the HRSG turbine generator set.
The HRSG absorbs energy from the exhaust gas stream of the combustion rotary engine. The absorbed energy is reborn to thermal energy as hot temperature and pressure steam. The hard-hitting steam is then utilized in a turbine generator set to supply movement energy. The shaft of the turbine is connected to an electrical generator that then produces wattage.

 The waste heat is recovered from the combustion rotary engine exhaust gas stream through absorption by the HRSG. The exhaust gas stream could be a massive mass flow with a temperature of up to one,150F.

 Most massive HRSGs will be classified as a double-wide, triple-pressure level with heat, a supplementary dismissed unit of natural circulation design, put in behind a fossil fuel dismissed combustion rotary engine.

 The steam generated by the HRSG is provided to the turbine that drives the electrical generator system.

SENSIBLE HEAT & LATENT HEAT

By
SENSIBLE HEAT Sensible heat produces a rise or fall in temperature of substance Sensible heat does not change physical state of substance LATENT HEAT Latent heat changes the state of substance i.e. Liquid to Gas, Solid to Liquid and Liquid to Solid in case of boiler . Latent heat does not cause temperature change in the substance

Why spirals are provided at the Idustrial Boiler Chimney

By
Chimney:- Chimney , as we know, is used to reject the flue gases to the atmosphere, coming from the Steam Boiler during operation. Also, it is a megastructure in Steam Boiler assembly and any discrepancy in its structural and foundation work can cause extremely serious damages, may even lead to casualties or plant shut off till its re-erection. The designer must consider all the factors while designing chimneys and one of the major factors amongst them is the wind factor. Blowing wind tries to overcome its static inertia but fails, if spirals are provided on the surface of the chimney. BUT THE QUESTION IS HOW????? Consider a chimneys (without spiral wings) , when the blowing wind comes in contact with its upstream surface, stagnation point (zero velocity) is achieved at that point i.e. pressure generated is high at that point and at the downstream end a vacuum is created as the wind coming in contact with the chimneys , gets deflected and meets after some point (wake regio

Critical Thickness of Insulation and It's Effect on Boiler Efficiency

By
Welcome to the THERMODYNE BLOG, today in this article we are going to explore the thickness of insulation and its effect on boiler efficiency and other parameters. Critical thickness of insulation and its significance             The information in this article gives a significant collection of data you need to know about the boiler and its performance, the parameter that affects the boiler efficiency .         Table of content INTRODUCTION THICKNESS OF INSULATION CRITICAL RADIUS EFFECT ON BOILER EFFIIENCY INSULATING MATERIALS CONCLUSION INTRODUCTION- The  thickness  up to which heat flow increases and after which heat flow decreases is termed  critical thickness . In the case of cylinders and spheres, it is called the  critical radius . The  critical radius of insulation  can be derived depending on the thermal conductivity of the insulation k and the external convection heat transfer coefficient h. THICKNESS OF INSULATION- CRITICAL RADIUS-   In boiler the shell and tube are cyl
