Steam Separation Arrangements TRIZ Cases
- In-Line Steam Trap Separator Using a Conical Deflector
A conical deflector separates condensate from steam in-line, cutting extra plumbing, mechanical sticking, and vapor loss.
- Steam Superheater Tube Bank Layout for Compact Heat Exchange
Angled tube banks and wedged outlet headers cut steam superheater size and weight while maintaining heat exchange efficiency.
- Separator Circuit Vortex Choke Wall Steam Liquid Separation
A separator circuit uses a vortex section with a choke wall to separate steam from liquid in cooking appliances.
- Modular Baffle System for Boiler Steam Separators
A modular baffle system uses integrated clips and support rails to secure steam separator plates without bolt attachments.
- Helical Groove Pipeline for Subsea Phase Separation
Helical grooves induce rotational flow in subsea pipelines, reducing pressure drop and preventing hydrate formation without external heating.
- Liquid Separator for Turbine Protection in Rankine Cycle
Upstream liquid separator removes droplets from working fluid, preventing turbine erosion and maintaining efficiency.
- Once-Through Steam Generator Loop Seal Separator Thermal Fatigue
Loop seal separator buffers cold feedwater against hot heat transfer tubes during start-up, preventing thermal fatigue and extending tube cycle life.
