What are the venting requirements of a deaerator tank?

Based on practical experience, deaerator manufacturers will aim to vent 22,4 kg / h of steam/air mixture per 1.000 kg / h of deaerator capacity.


Why doesn't the water in the deaerator tank turns to steam?

The water in the deaerator tank doesn't turn into steam because the water is kept at a high pressure, preventing it from boiling. The purpose of the deaerator is to remove dissolved gases from the feedwater, not to produce steam.

Why the Deaerator is placed at height and mostly at 15.5mtr?

By putting deaerator at height, vapour doesn't form at the suction area of feed water pumps so cavitation phenomenon in the impeller can be prevented. also to get NPSH.


What is the deaerator device used for?

A deaerator device is a mechanism found on steam boilers. Its purpose is to remove oxygen and other gases from the water that is entering the boiler tank, since the presence of oxygen or gases can cause corrosion on the inside of the boiler.


What is the function of a dearator on a steam boiler?

Deaerator removes dissolved oxygen from boiler water. The condensate cascades down a number of perforated trays and its surface area is greately increased. This enables dissolved oxygen to come out. Further bleed steam is supplied to deaerator and due to this the atmosphere is predominantly of steam. So the partial pressure of oxygen above the water level is very very low. When a gas exists above a liquid level, the solubility gas in the liquid depend upon its partial pressure. So oxygen comes out of water. Deaerator outlet water has less than 0.05 ppm dissolved oxygen. This is furthe removed by dizing of Hydrazene (N2H2). =A.D.PALAMWAR

What is deareater used in steam power plant?

A deaerator is a crucial component in a steam power plant that removes dissolved gases, primarily oxygen and carbon dioxide, from feedwater before it enters the boiler. By eliminating these gases, the deaerator helps prevent corrosion in the boiler and associated piping systems, thereby enhancing the efficiency and longevity of the equipment. Additionally, it preheats the feedwater, improving the overall thermal efficiency of the steam generation process.


Why deaerator kept at 15.5 high?

A deaerator is typically maintained at a pressure of 15.5 psi to effectively remove dissolved gases, particularly oxygen and carbon dioxide, from boiler feedwater. This pressure helps to increase the water temperature, enhancing the efficiency of the deaeration process and preventing corrosion in the boiler system. Operating at this pressure strikes a balance between effective gas removal and energy efficiency, ensuring optimal performance in steam generation.
