The design method of overheat protection orifice for power plant boiler super heated tube

발전용 보일러 주증기 튜브 과열방지용 오리피스 설계기법

It is important that overheat protection of super heated tube in boiler operation and maintenance. The overheat of super heat tube can make damage and rupture of tube material, which causes accidental shutdown of boiler. The super heated tube overheat is almost due to the lack of uniformity of gas temperature distribution. There are two ways to protect overheat of super heated tube. The one is to control hot gas operation pattern which is temperature or flow distribution. the other is to control super heated steam flow distribution. The former is difficult than the later, because of control device design. In this paper steam flow control method which uses orifices is proposed to protect overheat of super heat tube.
