How steam required for steam tracing of jacketed lines is calculated how much steam required for sulfur melting?

The steam required for steam tracing is calculated on the basis of the amount of heat transfer that is required or the temperature that you want to maintain with the help of steam. It also depends on the pipe material through which the steam is passing,the condition of the steam that whether it is saturated or superheated etc. Overall heat transfer cofficient is calculated considering all the factors like fouling or scaling,inside and outside dia. , surface area etc. After calculating the amount of heat to be transferred, the requirement of rate of steam is calculated. Generally, Low pressure steam is used as it has got more latent/Sensible heat as compared to MP or Superheated steam.


Advantages of steam power plant over diesel power plant?

1. Can be made in much greater output plants 2. Steam plants can use a variety of fuel sources including nuclear fuel, whilst diesel fuel is more expensive and best reserved for transport use.


What is the inlet pressure of a condensate tank?

It can be at any pressure less than the main steam pressure. I've operated steam systems with condensate tanks at widely varying pressures. The pressure a condensate tank, (which condenses some steam, but typically takes returns from steam traps) is wholly dependent on the system is installed in. Some heating system condensate tanks are designed to handle no more than 30 psig (minimum design requirement) yet take condensate at 1 or 2 psi from the steam traps. Other high pressure production lines operating at 50 - 100 psig could discharge to a tank at 50 - 100 psi, though the actual pressure would be reduced by the length of pipe transferring it to the tank. And the highest pressure I've operated a condensate system at was 600 psig, the steam system drew the steam for process from an extraction stage on the turbine at nominally 600 psi, though at low loads it was typically a much lower pressure.


How much power does he milliken station coal burning power plant produce?

At full load with both units running the plant can produce 260 megawatts per hour. If it burns to the ground, black people will eat money.


What is supercritical boiler?

The following extract taken from an article by Ingo Paul in Energy Issues No 19 April 1999 published by the World Bank [external link] briefly describes the difference between a subcritical and a supercritical boiler. "Supercritical" is a thermodynamic expression describing the state of a substance where there is no clear distinction between the liquid and the gaseous phase (i.e. they are a homogenous fluid). Water reaches this state at a pressure above 22.1 megapascals (MPa) The "efficiency" of the thermodynamic process of a coal fired power (sic) describes how much of the energy fed into the cycle is converted into electrical energy. The greater the output of electrical energy for a given amount of energy input, the higher the efficiency. If the energy input to the cycle is kept constant, the output can be increased by selecting elevated pressures and temperatures for the water-steam cycle. Up to an operating pressure of around 19 MPa in the evaporator part of the boiler, the cycle is sub-critical. This means, that there is a non-homogeneous mixture of water and steam in the evaporator part of the boiler. In this case a drum-type boiler is used because the steam needs to be separated from water in the drum of the boiler before it is superheated and led into the turbine. Above an operating pressure of 22.1 MPa in the evaporator part of the boiler, the cycle is supercritical. The cycle medium is a single phase fluid with homogeneous properties and there is no need to separate steam from water in a drum. Once-through boilers are therefore used in supercritical cycles. www.whizkris.com

Why do you need water for distillation?

Water is needed for distillation to control the amount of alcohol and to produce steam. Much of the water is boiled off during the process but the remaining percentage dictates the proof.


To produce 5 MW of electricity how much steam pressure is needed and water in relevancy. What temperature is needed to produce it and what size pipe should be piped into the steam turbine?

That is a question that does not have one single answer. For instance, if the pressure of the steam is raised, less steam is needed. As pressure rises, temperature will also rise due to adiabatic work done on the steam. Also, higher temperatures are needed at higher pressures to make sure the steam does not condense. Raising the temperature of the steam at a given pressure also means that less steam is needed to provide the same amount of energy. Efficiency will also vary, depending on the turbine, and other factors, such ascondenser vacuum. In general, running a pressure around 40 - 45 PSI, it will take 20,000 - 25,000 pounds of steam per hour to generate one megawatt of electricity during that hour. This is with steam that is just above saturation (around 285°F). So, for 5 MW, you'd need around 100,000 pounds of steam an hour. The pipe size would depend on the turbine. A 55 MW turbine (common for geothermal), might have two pipes bringing steam in (one per side), both of which are around 30" in diameter. For 100,000 pounds of steam an hour, much smaller pipes would suffice. However, expanding and then compressing the steam repeatedly is something you want to avoid. Note that these figures reflect more of a geothermal application. The pressure and temperature of steam from a boiler will typically be much higher.

How did the Protestant Reformation contribute to modern ideas about rights?

A large part of why the Reformation gained so much steam was because the put upon and forgotten and abused had suffered under the apathy of the Catholic Church for so long. Seeing the principals of the Reformation relating to the uplifting of their own needs was a crucial point that carried the movement into the modern age.
