TRANSFER FOR CHEMICALS IN STEAM POWER SYSTEMS

Physical and chemical relations, design considerations, and operation governing transport of water treatment chemicals, and impurities through steam power systems are discussed and typical concentrations of chemicals found in boiler water, steam and turbine deposits for different types of boilers and different water treatments are summarized. Distribution of salts between liquid and vapor, mechanical and chemical carryover, solubility in steam and different steam cycle arrangements, such as drains and extractions, are considered. Available and missing physical-chemical data needed for quantitative assessment of the chemical transport are also discussed.
