Convective Superheater
Reheater The pressure drop inside reheater tubes has an important adverse effect on the efficiency of turbine. Pressure drop through the reheater should be kept as low as possible. The tube diameter : 42 – 60mm. The design is similar to convective superheaters.
Economizer The economizer preheats the feed water by utilizing the residual heat of the flue gas. It reduces the exhaust gas temperature and saves the fuel. Modern power plants use steel-tube-type economizers. Design Configuration: divided into several sections : 0.6 – 0.8 m gap
Air Pre-Heater An air pre-heater heats the combustion air where it is economically feasible. The pre-heating helps the following: Igniting the fuel. Improving combustion. Drying the pulverized coal in pulverizer. Reducing the stack gas temperature and increasing the boiler efficiency. There are three types of air heaters: Recuperative Rotary regenerative Heat pipe
