Supercritical Steam Generator
A supercritical steam generator is a type of boiler that operates at supercritical pressure, frequently used in the production of electric power. In contrast to a subcritical boiler in which bubbles can form, a supercritical steam generator operates at pressures above the critical pressure. Therefore, liquid water immediately becomes indistinguishable from steam. Water passes below the critical point as it does work in a high pressure turbine and enters the generator's condenser, resulting in slightly less fuel use. The efficiency of power plants with supercritical steam generators is higher than with subcritical steam. Only with high pressure can higher temperature steam be converted more efficiently to mechanical energy in the turbine (as given by Carnot's theorem). Technically, the term "boiler" should not be used for a supercritical pressure steam generator as no "boiling" actually occurs in the device. History of supercritical steam generation Contemporary supercritica ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
