Pressure losses

The pressure losses in the heat exchanger units of the boiler are estimated according to the following approximations:

Economizer: the pressure loss is 5-10 % of the pressure of the feed water entering the economizer.

Evaporator:

Once through boilers: in once-through boilers the pressure loss of the evaporator is between 5 and 30 %.

Forced and natural circulation boilers: the pressure drop in the evaporator part of drum based boilers does not affect the

pressure loss of the main steam/water flow through the boiler. This means that saturated steam leaving the steam drum has

the same pressure as the feed water entering the steam drum. The pressure loss of the evaporator has to be

overcome using the driving force (natural circulation) or circulation pump (forced

circulation).

Superheater: the total pressure drop of all superheated packages is less than 10 % of the

pressure of the superheated steam.

Reheater: the pressure drop in the reheater is about 5 % of the pressure of reheated steam

1)A steam generator generates 500 tons/hr of steam at 150 bars and 500oC

from water at 180oC. The steam generator consists of boiler, S/H,

economizer and air preheater. The C.V. of the fuel used is 42 MJ/Kg, the

boiler efficiency is 80% and A/F is 19/1. The temperature of flue gases inlet

to boiler chimney is 200oC and the temperature of water leaving the

economizer is 270oC. The temperatures of air inlet and outlet from A/H are

20oC and 150oC respectively calculate.
