METHOD OF STEAM SEPARATION AND STEAM BOILER SEPARATING DEVICE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: heat engineering. SUBSTANCE: internal space of drum 1 is divided into compartments 2 that in steam-generating capacity are multiple of the salt compartment by installation of partitions 3. Each compartment is connected to individual circuits 4. The compartments are interconnected by by-pass pipes 5 through 8 used respectively for feeding of the first evaporation stage, blow-through of water from it to the second evaporation stage, blow-through from the second stage to the third one, and continuous blow-through from the third stage. Drum 1 is provided with steam-receiving shutters 9 and steam-collecting pipe 10 sectionalized in compartments. Gate valves 11 are installed in the branches of the steam-collecting pipe. By-pass pipes 5 through 8 have branches 12 to each compartment 2. Flanges of branches 12 are provided with detachable stoppers 13. Partitions 3 have man-holes with detachable covers.
