Abstract: There is disclosed a method of generating superheated steam for use in power generation. The method comprises: (a) preheating feed water to a temperature below its boiling point; (b) boiling the preheated feed water to produce steam; and (c) superheating the steam. The feed water is boiled by heat exchange with a heat transfer fluid which has been heated by heat collected in a first solar radiation absorption device. In addition, one or other or both of the preheating and superheating is carried out by direct heating in a further solar radiation absorption device or devices. The invention also relates to an apparatus for generating superheated steam for use in power generation.

Abstract: A system for generating steam for a turbine of an electric generator includes a superheater that receives steam from a boiler and that superheats the steam. All or a portion of the superheated steam from the superheater is then passed through a heat exchanger to transfer some of the heat energy in the superheated steam to a flow of water. This reduces a temperature of the superheated steam to a temperature that is suitable for the turbine. The water heated in the heat exchanger can be condensed water that has already passed through the turbine, and the water heated in the heat exchanger can be routed to the boiler, where it is re-cycled back into steam.

Abstract: The invention relates to a steam generator wherein a continuous heating panel of a generator, which is formed from a number of evaporator tubes, and an overheating panel, which is formed from a number of over-heating tubes which are arranged downstream from the evaporator tubes and on the flow side, are arranged in a heating gas channel. According to the invention, a water separating element is integrated into a number of over-flow tubes which are connected on the flow side of one of several evaporator tubes to one or several overheating tubes.

Abstract: A method is provided to inject liquid water into the normal stream of fuel, superheated air and superheated steam entering a primary reactor of a fuel processor. The injection location is in the steam supply line where superheated steam vaporizes a majority of the liquid water, preferably prior to injection into the primary reactor. Steam supplied by a vaporizer may temporarily lag desired steam production due to system up-power transients or startup conditions, coupled with vaporizer thermal lag time. Injection of liquid water overcomes this temporary deficit of steam. Additional air is also supplied as needed to improve reactance for a given steam volume/temperature. Injection rate or volume of the liquid water and air may also be based on one or more measured variables of the primary reactor.

Abstract: A method for positioning superheaters (2, 3, 4, 5) in biomass burning steam generators, and a steam generator. The steam generator comprises a combustion chamber (1), a flue gas duct (6), a steam circuit (7), and the superheaters (2, 3, 4, 5) positioned for minimizing corrosion at a high temperature. The steam generator is fitted with at least two superheaters (2, 3, 4, 5), whose positioning in the flue gas duct (6) and serial arrangement in the steam circuit (7) are effected in such a way that the superheater's or superheaters' heat transfer surface has its surface temperature remaining below the melting point of KOH, 406° C. (corresponds to a steam temperature of about 350-380° C.) down to the point in the flue gas duct (6), at which the flue gases' temperature has fallen to 750° C. While the flue gases are within the range of less than 750° C.

Abstract: This invention provides a superheated steam apparatus that is capable of efficiently heating water to generate superheated steam, and to perform a process such as sterilization utilizing this superheated steam while keeping the loss of heating energy to a minimum.

Abstract: After the economizer, an injection water pipe branches off the connecting pipe between economizer and evaporator in order to control the steam temperature. The injection water pipe is provided with a control device for controlling the injection water flow. The injection water flowing through the injection water pipe is injected into the steam coming from the evaporator at a mixing point located before the superheater. In order to control the position of the control device in the injection water pipe, the enthalpy at the superheater outlet is calculated from the parameters pressure and temperature and is compared with a desired enthalpy resulting from the desired parameters.

Abstract: In some operating states, supplemental additional sealing steam must be fed to the sealing-steam system of a steam turbine. The feeding of supplemental sealing steam from the live-steam line involves considerable problems. According to the invention, therefore, the sealing-steam system is connected via a feeder line to a bleed point of the superheater of the boiler, so that the temperature of the supplemental sealing steam is well below the live-steam data and, in particular, is compatible with the material temperature in the region of the high-pressure shaft seal.

Abstract: A heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) which contains multiple superheater and reheater tube units, each unit including an upper and lower header connected pressure-tightly together by a plurality of vertically-oriented tubes provided in alternate parallel banks, with the tubes of adjacent units being provided in an internested arrangement. Each superheater and reheater unit contains primary straight tubes and secondary bent tubes which are offset from the primary straight tubes in a direction perpendicular to the upper and lower headers and parallel to the direction of hot gas flowing transversely past the internested tubes. The ratio of the number of superheater tubes to reheater tubes in each row of tubes is provided in proportion to the desired heat transfer from the hot combustion gas to the superheated or reheated steam passing through the tubes in the generator assembly.

Abstract: A reheat steam temperature control system that utilizes the separate components of a reheater and a reheat heat exchanger to generate hot reheat steam. The reheater uses the fluidized bed as its source of heat while the reheat heat exchanger uses main steam as its source of heat. A bypass control valve is operated to divert the required amount of main steam to the reheat heat exchanger depending on operating conditions. Should the temperature of the hot reheat steam be too low, additional main steam is delivered to the reheat heat exchanger. Conversely, should the temperature of the hot reheat steam be too high, the amount of main steam delivered to the reheat heat exchanger is reduced. Attemperators are used within both the reheating circuit and the main steam circuit to temper the fluctuations of their respective steam.
