3.13 Steam – Condensate Heat
Measurements:
Actual condensate volume flow is measured by the flow element (DP transmitter,
Flowmeter). Condensate temperature is measured by the temperature transmitter. A
pressure transmitter is used to monitor steam pressure.
Calculations:
• The condensate density, volume flow, mass flow and saturated steam energy -
condensate energy are calculated using the fluid characteristics stored in the flow
computer. (see "FLUID DATA" submenu)
Output Results:
• Display Results
Steam – Condensate Heat, Condensate Mass and Volume Flow Rate, Resettable
Total, Non-Resettable Total, Temperature, Pressure, Condensate Density
(optional: peak demand, demand last hour, time/date stamp)
• Analog Output
Net Heat Flow, Mass and Volume Flow Rate, Condensate Temperature, Steam
Pressure, Condensate Density, Peak Demand, Demand Last Hour
• Pulse Output
Net Heat, Mass or Volume Total
• Relay Outputs
Net Heat, Mass or Volume Flow Rate, Total, Condensate Temperature, Steam
Pressure Alarms, Peak Demand, Demand Last Hour
Applications:
Calculate the energy stored in steam – the energy in returned condensate water.
