The high-pressure steam generation allows<br>relatively less carryover and provides better-quality steam, as at low pressure, carryover is more likely to occur. Using a high-pressure<br>boiler allows you to use the steam in different applications at different pressures by using the PRV. It also provides the<br>flexibility for variable<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\" style=\"font-size:15px\"><br> A sudden increase in load reduces the boiler pressure and increases the carry over and moisture content in the steam.<br>The PRV eliminates this and allows constant pressure to be maintained in the boiler. Furthermore, generating steam at high pressure<br>is relatively cheaper than using the low-pressure boiler, so it reduces fuel consumption.<br>Now we have a brief idea of what benefits PRS serves. Any porous plug or orifice valve which reduces the cross-section area across the flow,<br>works as a pressure reducer, but during the fluctuating loading, the outlet pressure of the valve will also fluctuate, which is not desirable,<br>so to eliminate the above issue, we use the PRV, which provides a constant pressure during the variable loading also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does a pressure reducing system work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A pressure reducing system, achieved through a pressure reducing valve, helps to lower the inlet pressure to a desired and consistent outlet pressure. When the inlet pressure exceeds the desired outlet pressure, the valve opens to release the excess pressure. Conversely, when the inlet pressure drops below the desired outlet pressure, the valve closes partially or fully to restrict the flow and maintain the set pressure. This system ensures that downstream equipment or processes operate within safe and desired pressure ranges. The pressure reducing valve consists of a diaphragm or piston, a spring, and an adjustable setpoint to regulate the valve opening and pressure levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:49px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let&#8217;s look more closely at what the technical data suggests:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:36px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A pressure reducing valve is a regulating valve that maintains the steam pressure at the<br>outlet at a certain fixed, prescribed level that is lower than the inlet pressure. The PRV<br>not only reduces the pressure but also controls the flow by load fluctuation<br>dynamically. Therefore, using the change of state of steam caused by adiabatic steam expansion, not<br>only the pressure changes but the temperature, specific volume, and latent heat also change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Effects caused by PRS:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. <\/strong> <strong>Quality improved of steam: Pressure reduction is the use of adiabatic steam<\/strong><br>expansion. Since the latent heat of steam changes as pressure changes, dryness<br>fraction increases.<br>For example: if the saturated steam at pressure is 10 kg\/cm2 with a 95% dryness<br>fraction is reduced to 3 kg\/cm2.<br>Enthalpy of steam at inlet of PRS = 181.2 + 0.95*481.8 = 638.91 kcal\/kg<br>And the dryness fraction at the outlet,<br>= (638.91-133.4)\/516.9 = 0.977<br>= 97.7%<br>Now we can see a 2.7% increment in the dryness fraction. which simply means less<br>condensate will form inside the pipe and more steam will reach the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Reduction in piping cost. : As mentioned above, the PRV allows the<\/strong><br>generation of steam at high pressure, and at high pressure the density of steam is<br>high, which requires less space, so high pressure steam can be carried in a small<br>diameter pipe as compared to low pressure steam.<br>Considering the above example,<br>The density of steam at 10 kg\/cm2 = 5.049 kg\/m3<br>Velocity of steam in pipe = 30 m\/s<br>Capacity of boiler = 2000 kg\/hr<br>Then, the pipe required to carry the high pressure (10 kg\/cm2) steam at a rate of<br>2000 kg\/hr is,<br>Steam capacity (kg\/s) = density * area <em>velocity 2000\/3600 = 5.049<\/em>0.785*D2 * 30<br>Inner diameter D = 68.38 mm.<br>And pipe required to carry the low pressure (3 kg\/cm2) steam at the rate of 2000<br>kg\/hr is,<br>The density of steam = 1.622 kg\/m3<br>Velocity of steam = 30 m\/s<br>2000\/3600 = 1.622<em>0.785<\/em>D2 *30<br>D = 120.4 mm<br>So, by using the PRV before the process, a large piping coat can be saved since a lower<br>diameter pipe will be required.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:43px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>3. <strong>Reduced Carry Over: Low pressure boilers are more prone to carryover.
