The following infor-mation is based on t

20、hat document and is included here for emphasis and for the convenience of the user of this Code. It is expected that the Code user is fully cognizant of Sections 1 and 3 of ASME PTC 1 and has read them prior to applying this Code.ASME Performance Test Codes provide test procedures that yield results

21、 of the highest level of accuracy consistent with the best engineering knowledge and practice currently available. They were developed by balanced committees representing all concerned interests and specify procedures, instrumentation, equipment-operating requirements, calculation methods, and uncer

22、tainty analysis.When tests are run in accordance with a Code, the test results themselves, without adjustment for uncertainty, yield the best available indication of the actual performance of the tested equipment. ASME Performance Test Codes do not specify means to compare those results to contractu

23、al guarantees. Therefore, it is recommended that the parties to a commercial test agree before starting the test and preferably before signing the contract on the method to be used for comparing the test results to the contractual guarantees. It is beyond the scope of any Code to determine or interp

24、ret how such comparisons shall be made.viFOREWORDThe ASME Performance Test Codes Committee voted in December 1965 to establish a Test Code Committee for Demineralizers (PTC 31) and later approved as PTC 31 Committees objective, the development of a Test Code that would define the procedures for the

25、accurate testing of ion exchange equipment for determining level of perform-ance. The name of this Committee was changed at the request of PTC Committee No. 31 from Demineralizers to Ion Exchange Equipment on June 12, 1970. Most steam generation cycles, either for process application or utility powe

26、r production, require the use of water treatment equipment. Such equipment may be a simple process application, removing only hardness constituents from water, or may be a relatively complex process employing one or more types of ion exchange resin processes and/or membrane processes each with a hig

27、h degree of instrumentation and control logic. Additionally, such equip-ment is employed in virtually all types of nuclear steam generation cycles, processing water containing not only very high concentrations of impurities, but also treating liquids with impurity concentrations in the range of part

28、s per billion to parts per trillion. Because performance of such process equipment directly influences the efficiency and output of steam generation cycles, a Committee was named by The American Society of Mechanical Engineers to draft a revised Performance Test Code for High-Purity Water Treatment

29、Systems. Members of this Committee were selected on the basis that equipment manufacturers, users, and consultants as well as general interest groups were represented. A draft of this Code was distributed in September 2011 for comment and criticism by industry and other interested individuals. This

30、edition was approved by the PTC Standards Committee on September 2, 2011, and approved and adopted as a Standard practice of the Society by action of the Board on Standardization and Testing on October 7, 2011. It was also approved as an American National Standard by the ANSI Board of Standards Revi

35、 Secretary of the PTC Committee.ASME PTC 31-201111-1 OBJECT1-1.1 This Code defines the procedures for the accurate field testing of high-purity water treatment systems for the purpose of determining level of performance. It is based on the use of accurate instrumentation and the best ana-lytical and

36、 measurement procedures available. 1-1.2 This Code is recommended for use in conducting acceptance tests of high-purity water treatment systems. If so used, any deviations from Code procedure must be agreed upon in writing. In the absence of written agree-ment, the Code requirements shall be mandato

37、ry. Upon completion of tests, the report issued should provide all necessary base line data against which all future operational test results can be measured to assess deterioration of performance in the interim. 1-1.3 Before formulating the procedure for testing a specific process or system, the Co

38、de on General Instructions PTC 1 should be studied and followed in detail. 1-1.4 The Code on Definitions and Values (PTC 2) defines certain technical terms and numerical constants. Unless otherwise specified in this Code, instrumentation should comply with the sections of Supplements on Instruments

39、and Apparatus (PTC 19 Series).1-2 SCOPEOnly the relevant portion of this Code need apply to any individual case or test under consideration. In some cases the procedure is simple; however, for com-plex systems or complex modes of system operation, the procedures and calculations of test results requ

40、ire more involved provisions for testing.1-2.1 This Code is applicable to the following types of high-purity water treatment systems, which are either used individually or in various combinations depending on requirements of the process:(a) membrane equipment including but not limited to, microfiltr

42、 electrodialysis reversal (EDR).1-2.2 This Code applies to equipment and systems that are utilized for (a) the conditioning of makeup, feedwater, and con-densate for steam generation(b) the conditioning of process waters1-2.3 This Code applies to the performance of high-purity water treatment system

43、s at design, minimum flow rates or maximum flow rates, depending on the purpose of the test, with regard to one or more of the following:(a) water quality and quantity of influent and effluent(b) pressure drop, flow, and temperature(c) startup, shutdown, and lay-up procedure (d) operating efficiency

45、he inability to control operating parameters that are the causes of the uncertainty. The following is a partial list of parameters that may impact the test uncertainty: (a) seasonal variations in influent water characteristics (b) aging of equipment and media(c) operator interface1-3.2 As stated in

46、subsection 1.1, this Code primarily pro-vides guidance in the design and operation of the high-purity water treatment systems. Section 5 is included to identify dominant sources of errors and their effect on the test results but not serve to validate the quality of the results.ASME PTC 31-201132-1 D
