Steam-atomising desuperheaters are cooling systems for controlling the temperatures of steam and hot gases. Their task is to reduce temperatures in pipelines, or to provide process steam with a precisely defined temperature.
Typical places of use
- Steam cooling, production of saturated steam
Basic technical data
- Nominal pipe size (steam pipe): from DN150 or 6”
- Nominal pressure class:
up to PN400 (ANSI-class 2500) - Temperature: up to 600 °C
Main advantages
- Good heat exchange and low vaporisation time
- Excellent control performance at partial load
- Large rangeability possible
- Cooling to saturated steam temperature possible
- Low thermoshock hazard
- Short distance to temperature measurement
- Better mixing due to turbulence of the motive steam
- Good vaporisation even at low vapour pressures
