Motive steam cooler
Tasks
Cooling steam in heat-driven power plants
Versions
Forged steel housing. material: 13CrMo44 connecting flanges to steam pipe: DN 150-200-250 PN 16-25-40
Advantages
Externally mixing motive steam nozzle
Excellent misting and small droplet size for better heat transfer and fast evaporation
Good regulation at partial load.
Exact injection flow metering for precise temperature adjustment
Pressure-controlled cooling water injection
Central annular nozzle for even cooling of the steam flow
Drip-tight when the plant is shut down
All installed parts can be replaced without machining
Protective pipe in the cooler cooling water supply line prevents thermal shock
Simple maintenance with easy-to-replace cooler insert
Low wear thanks to constant cooling water pressure across the entire load range
The motive steam cooler shown here is an injection nozzle with spring-regulated aperture control and an externally mixing spray nozzle. The quantity of water injected is regulated by an upstream control valve. This valve adjusts the injection water pressure in front of the nozzles according to the load.
