Pneumatic valve setting corresponds to pressure (psig)
Measure flows by measuring mass of water over a given time (lbs/sec)

Calibrating Flowrates: Suggestions1. Cooling water flowrate undetermined under 6 psig.
2. First open each valve fully, then reduce to setpoint.
3. Redundancy moving between different operating method.

Heat Loss and Fouling Analysis

Heat Loss: Methodology● Adjusted valve W2 to maintain constant liquid level in the sight glass
● Measured condensate flowrate and performed energy balance on the overall system
Balance:

Heat Loss: Results● Average total heat loss: 4.3 kW
● Average loss as a percentage of total heat transferred from steam: 9.9%
● Most loss likely due to radiation from steam piping.

Fouling Analysis● Observed rust in cooling water stream, but not in process water steam
● Significantly higher values of hi vs ho for cooling water at the same
Reynolds number
● Assumed differences due to fouling on outer surface of pipe

Conclusions● Flowrate valve correlations were developed based on pneumatic valve pressure
○ Flowrate range (0.2 - 1.35 lbs/sec)
● h vs Reynolds number consistent with correlation
● Fouling in cooling water heat exchanger
● Overall heat loss: 4 kW
○ ~ 10 % of total heat transferred

Recommendations● Valve C7 is very sticky
● Low cooling water valve settings are inaccurate
● Open valves fully (17 psig) to start before adjusting to desired flow
● Ensure that no steam flows out of apparatus
