Description
DUAL PATH PARALLEL SUPERHEATER
FIELD AND BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates generally to methods and devices for effectively increasing the delivery of steam in a controlled and efficient manner.
[0002] It is commonly required that temperature and/or steam flow (capacity) of an existing boiler be increased. Pressure drop across the superheater increases as the steaming capacity increases. High pressure drop is often the limiting factor for a capacity increase. As a result, the complete superheater regularly needs to be replaced to provide a lower pressure drop.
[0003] In a typical scenario, an operator requires that steam flow be increased (e.g., 543.4kpph). Standard practice is to arrange the superheater such that there is only one path by which steam can become superheated. In order to superheat at the increased rate of steam, additional surface is added. Figure 1 hereof shows a typical prior art arrangement 10 for a single-path series superheater, in a new surface 12 is added to an existing surface 14 to process the increased capacity. There is a provided a drum 16 for delivering steam to surfaces 12 and 14 and a turbine 18 for ultimately receiving steam from surfaces 12 and 14 [0004] Table 1, below, predicted steam temperatures and pressures at the locations as defined by Figure 1.
[0005] Table 1: Typical Prior Art Arrangement - Steam Temperature and Pressure Profile 47? spray 2f $pray SW% » S43.4 kppl5 steam
[0006] Desired outlet pressure is 1300 psig and desired outlet temperature is 900 SF.
[0007] To control steam temperature there are spray attemperators at two interstage locations, the first between locations B and C and the second between positions D and E. The prior art arrangement is predicted to make full steam temperature with a total of 49eF of spray attemperation. However, the arrangement does not achieve the target outlet pressure of 1300 psig. The best achievable outlet pressure is only 1236 psig. The traditional remedy for this is to increase the number of parallel steam flow paths in the existing surface. This requires the replacement of all the existing superheater tubes, superheater headers, roof seals, etc. and often requires that sootblower cavities be relocated.
[0008] Thus, there is a need for increased steaming rate without the need for replacement of the existing superheater.

[0021] For a better understanding of the present invention, and the operating advantages attained by its use, reference is made to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter, by way of example only, forming a part of this disclosure, in which a preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0022] In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and in which like reference numbers are used to refer to the same or functionally similar elements: [0023] FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a prior art single path series superheater; and [0024] FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the present dual path parallel superheater.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0025] With reference to the FIG. 2 the dual path parallel superheater (“DPPS”) according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, the superheater arranged such that there are two parallel paths by which steam becomes superheated. FIG. 2 shows the DPPS arrangement, in which a new surface 22 is added to the original surface 24 to process increased capacity. As in the prior art structure, there is a provided a drum 30 for delivering steam to surfaces 22 and 24 and a steam receiving apparatus 32 such as a turbine for ultimately receiving steam from surfaces 22 and 24.
[0026] Table 2 below shows predicted steam temperatures and pressures at the locations A1-A4 and B1-B4, defined in FIG. 2.
[0027] Table 2: Steam Temperature and Pressure Profile for the present DPPS:
Path A « 5C% « 271.7 kpph steam Path 0 - 58¾ a 271.7 ttpph steam
*1? spray
61? Spray [0028] Desired outlet pressure is 1300 psig and desired outlet temperature is 900eF.
[0029] FIG. 2 reflects two paths: Path A, marked by locations A1-A4, and Path B, marked by locations B1-B4. To control steam temperature, each path has a spray attemperator 26, 28 at one interstage location.
[0030] As shown in FIG. 2, Path A, including locations A1-A4, is arranged in a side by side orientation in order to utilize interstage spray 26 while only requiring that one new bank be installed. The interstage spray attemperator 26 is located between positions A2 and A3. The attemperator 26 controls steam temperature and combats high metal temperatures inherent to low steam flow.
[0031] The tubes in the Path A bank may be made of a steel compound such as SA213-T22, a plurality of rows of stainless steel tubes may be employed in the outlet legs. Additionally, the side by side design of an embodiment of the present invention minimizes the amount of new heating surface required because hot steam is reintroduced to the front of the furnace, where the flue gas is hottest.
[0032] Path B, including locations B1-B4, reuses the unit’s existing superheater surface and existing interstage spray 28 location between positions B2 and B3. The interstage spray 28 controls steam temperature and combats high metal temperatures inherent to low steam flow. Similar to Path A, metals in the Path B banks may be made of materials well-known to those of skill in the art. The exception is the outlet rows of the Path B primary superheater: These rows generally require replacement with stainless steel tubes.
[0033] Both Path A and Path B achieve full steam temperature independently. Path A has 41QF of spray margin and Path B has a 61QF of spray margin. After being controlled to the same temperature, steam from Path A and Path B recombine to form a single outlet.
[0034] The parallel paths A and B are designed for the same pressure drop. This can be accomplished initially by under drilling headers in the new surface or installing orificed Dutchman in the existing surface. Under drilling headers and the installation of orificed Dutchmen are techniques known to those of skill in the art. However, as the unit becomes dirty, and spray flow changes, the pressure loss in each line may change. As a means of control, a trim valve may be installed in at least one of the lines. With the ability to dynamically adjust pressure drop, steam flow is enabled to remain as designed in each path. Thereby, steam temperature and pressure can also be maintained as designed.
[0035] An embodiment of the present invention may offer numerous advantages. An embodiment of the present invention is for industrial boilers undergoing capacity increases. When steaming rate increases the amount of pressure drop between the drum and superheater outlet increases. If the newly-desired steaming rate is high enough, a new superheater with additional flow paths is required to maintain outlet pressure. A new surface is required regardless of the existing superheater condition. As a result, operators are often forced to scrap tubes before they reach end-of-life, or, abandon their projects all together due to high project costs. The present DPPS allows for increased steam flow without replacing existing surface.
[0036] Operators continuously strive to get as much as possible from existing equipment before investing in replacements. This is especially true when the existing equipment is in good operating condition. An embodiment of the present invention may provide cost savings to operators through the re-use of the existing surface. An embodiment of the present invention may allow satisfaction of an increased steam demand at a lower cost than traditional solutions. An embodiment of the present invention may be applied to many surface different arrangements, offering flexibility in its application.
[0037] The present DPPS arrangement may be applied to several boiler types, including but not limited to, process recovery in the paper industry, Stirling power boilers, waste-to-energy applications, and biomass combustion technologies.
[0038] A comparison of Table 1 and Table 2, above, shows that the present DPPS allows an increased steam flow to be controlled to a target steam temperature while maintaining the desired outlet pressure.
[0039] Under increased flow conditions the DPPS design provides ability to re-use existing superheater surface without lowering outlet pressure; ability to reach full steam temperature with less heating surface than prior art designs; and ability to control pressure drop across each steam path.
[0040] Alternative methods for processing an increased flow condition include allowing outlet pressure to decrease and removing the existing superheater (tubes, headers, roof seals, etc.) and installing new surface with additional parallel flow paths.
[0041] In another alternative, all or a portion of capacity increases may be derived from increases in operating temperature. In these embodiments the method described herein may further be used to maintain a desired pressure drop while maintaining a desired superheater outlet temperature. While specific embodiments and/or details of the invention have been shown and described above to illustrate the application of the principles of the invention, it is understood that this invention may be embodied as more fully described in the claims, or as otherwise known by those skilled in the art, including any and all equivalents, without departing from such principles.
[0042] It is to be understood that, if any prior art publication is referred to herein, such reference does not constitute an admission that the publication forms a part of the common general knowledge in the art, in Australia or any other country.
[0043] In the claims which follow and in the preceding description of the apparatus and method, except where the context requires otherwise due to express language or necessary implication, the word “comprise” or variations such as “comprises” or “comprising” is used in an inclusive sense, i.e. to specify the presence of the stated features but not to preclude the presence or addition of further features in various embodiments of the apparatus and method.
