From project definition to delivery
Engineering intent and design approach
Engineering of Superheaters concentrates on gas and steam temperature profiles, pinch and approach temperatures, steam conditions, circulation, gas-side pressure drop, water chemistry, metallurgy, fouling and start-up transients. The selected configuration is verified against normal, minimum, start-up, shutdown and credible upset cases, then checked for operability, maintainability, energy use, process safety and site interfaces before the design is frozen.
The design basis for Superheaters is defined from service data, design conditions, and battery limits. For this equipment, Inlet steam and superheat target and Feed and thermal conditions must be completed in the datasheet and design documents; performance values and guarantees are set only after the project basis is approved.
