Preheater Delta T
Created Friday 08 August 2014
A stationary model of a preheater computing the specific enthalpies at tapping and condensate outlet for a prescribed temperature difference.
1. Purpose of Model
The model is supposed to be used for the simplified simulation of static cases. Its main purpose is to provide appropriate start or nominal values for similar dynamic model versions.
It computes the stationary values of:
- Outlet mass specific enthalpy.
- Condensed outlet mass specific enthalpy.
2. Level of Detail, Physical Effects Considered and Physical Insight
2.1 Level of Detail
Referring to Brunnemann et al. [1], this model refers to the level of detail L1 because the model only computes a set of parameters for the given scenario.
2.2 Physical Effects Considered
- Conservation of Energy
3. Limits of Validity
The model is only able to calculate stationary situations.
4. Interfaces
4.1 Steam Signals
For details see SteamSignal_blue, SteamSignal_red and SteamSignal_green.
Tapping inlet: Red connector
Tapping outlet: Green connector
Condensate inlet: Blue connector
Condensate outlet: Blue connector
4.2 Medium Models
VLE medium model
5. Nomenclature
6. Governing Equations
In general the derived equations for the model consider stationary balance of energy.
6.1 Governing Model Equations
Energy
The inlet temperatures on tapping and condensate side are computed as function of the medium and the respective fluid pressures and specific enthalpies.
The condensate outlet temperature is given by the difference of the tapping inlet temperature and the user defined 
.
The tapping outlet temperature is computed by balancing the heat flows.
For computing the condenser outlet enthalpy the tapping enthalpies are balanced and multiplied by the value of the tapping mass flow as shown in eq. 5).
The tapping enthalpy is given as function of the medium and the tapping pressure,
