APPROXIMATE CALCULATION OF THE STATES IN WATER STORAGE VESSELS WITH BOILING AND NON-CONSTANT CONTENT AND WITH STEAM OR STEAM-AIR DISCHARGE

NAEHERUNGSWEISE BERECHNUNG DER ZUSTAENDE IN WASSERSPEICHERN MIT SIEDENDEM UND NICHTKONSTANTEM INHALT BEI DAMPF-BZW. DAMPF-LUFT-ENTNAHME

Water vessels with boiling and nonconstant mass of content are used as reservoirs for power stations and for fireless locomotives as well as for the power supply of exhaust jet pumps driven by hot water or steam, the jet pumps being installed in refrigerators, wind tunnels, units for separating dust particles or pollutant from the air. Moreover the water vessels are used as control units in nuclear power stations. Exact computation of the discharged mass and the states within the storage vessel is possible but complicated. In the case of steam discharge a simple approximate solution can be derived, taking into account addition of heat and the enclosure of an inert gas (air). The procedure is applicable to vessels with other boiling agents in the state of filling or discharging (e. g. bottles with liquid gas or propellant tanks for rockets).
