Revisiting the Method of Designing Salt Equalization Lines between the Saline Compartments of Drum Boilers of Thermal Power Plants

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

A method for designing salt equalization lines (SEL) in two-sided external saline compartments (SC) with allowance for natural circulation is described. If there is heat imbalance between the left and right SCs, the SEL cannot eliminate the salt imbalance between them because of the natural circulation in the two-sided SCs. The method was validated experimentally for TG-104 boiler with SELs: salt imbalance occurred between the SCs after artificial creation of heat imbalance between the left and right waterwalls of the saline compartments.
