Thanks rmw,
I was Looking at sizing the turbine generator for the potential plant steam load which is about 28,000 lbs per hour at 250 psi during peak periods. Nominal flow for 6 months of the year is about 50% of this. Based on a quick calculation and review of another published application...
Hi Folks,
I am evaluating an opportunity for a co-generation project at an industrial site. This site uses, during peak times 30,000 lbs per hour of steam at 250 psi saturated and has process use for 10,000 lbs hour of lower pressure 50 lbs per hour. During half of the year steram flow is...
Thanks again folks for all your help. I've just discovered this forum and find its like having an engineering department on hand at all times.
I think I can conclude that upgrading to medium voltage even for a number of drives may be a long payback. A new plant however or a substantial...
Thanks for the input folks.
In this application there are more than 15, 500 HP motors used for refrigeration. These are currently installed at 600 volts. However for future installation, particularily for motors operated over longer periods of time and some distance away, I was thinking...
I am considering using medium voltage 2300 volts for several 500 hp compressors now at 600 volts. Is 2300 volt systems more efficeint when considering new equipment.
