PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
To reduce the temperature of steam in a pipe, water must be injected into the steam flow. To achieve good control, the water must be
atomised to form a fine spray that can be easily absorbed by the steam.
The result is an increased flow of steam at a lower temperature. Thus, by varying the amount of water added, the temperature of the steam
can be controlled.
For this closed heat system, the total heat energy remains constant, and so the enthalpy of the steam flow downstream must equal to the
sum of the enthalpy of the upstream steam and the spraywater being added.
Thus:
Qw = Qs * (h1-h3)
(h3-h2)

INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
All our Desuperheaters are designed to fit in a branch of the main steam line and thus installation of each unit is similar. The units can
be mounted into a main steam line of 100mm and larger. The unit should be installed into a T-piece, which is welded into the steam
line. A recommended minimum distance of 5 pipe diameters straight pipe, upstream of the unit (to prevent excessive turbulent flow), and
approximately 10 pipe diameters downstream - with a minimum of 2 meters - to ensure full absorption of the water being added.
The orientation of the unit must be such, that the nozzles point downstream, in the same direction as the steam flow. The unit can be installed
in a vertical or horizontal pipe, with the best installation being in a vertical installation with the flow upwards.
The temperature probe should be installed about 20 pipe diameters downstream of the unit - this depends on the type of desuperheater unit
used (see table below). The probe should be installed on the inside of the bend or on the top of the pipe.
