Impurities in the steammay be derived from boiler water carryover, inefficient steamseparators, natural salt solubility in the steam and other factors.The most commonly specified and analyzed parameters areso

Interferences6.1 Saturated Steam Sampling of steam presents difficultextraction and transport problems that affect the representative-ness of the sample.6.1.1 Isokinetic sampling requires that the velocity vector(velocity and direction) of the f

19、luid entering the sample nozzleport (tip) be the same as the stream being sampled at thelocation of the sample nozzle. When the sample is not extractedisokinetically the contaminants in the steam are not properlyrepresented in the sample. The effects of non-isokinetic sam-pling are illustrated in Fi

20、g. 1 and can make the sampleunrepresentative. The sample should be removed at a positionaway from the pipe wall, located at a point of average velocitywhich can be calculated for both laminar and turbulent flows.6.1.2 Traditionally, saturated steam samples with initialsteam velocities above 11 m/s (

21、36 ft/s) were considered toprovide adequate turbulent flow to ensure transport of mostparticulates and ionic components. More recent studies (2,3)found that because many sample lines are long and uninsu-lated, steam samples are frequently fully condensed prior toreaching the sample station. Partiall

22、y or fully condensedsamples usually have a velocity too low to prevent excessivedeposition and the sample becomes nonrepresentative of thesource. Detailed design of the sample line to control vapor andliquid velocity can minimize this interference but cooling ofsaturated steam samples at the source

23、is recommended toassure a representative sample. See Practices D3370 andD5540 for further information on factors that affect liquidsample transport.6.2 Superheated SteamMost contaminants can be dis-solved in superheated steam. However, as steam pressure andtemperature are reduced the solubility of m

24、any contaminants isdecreased and the contaminants precipitate and deposit on theinner surfaces of the sample line (4). This condition has beenfound to be prevalent only in regions of dry wall tube where thetemperature of the tube wall exceeds the saturation temperatureof the steam.6.2.1 Interference

25、 also occurs when the transport tube tem-perature is at or below the saturation temperature. The steamloses superheat and dissolved contaminants deposit on the tubewall. The sample is no longer representative. Superheatedsteam samples shall be cooled or desuperheated in the samplenozzle or immediate

26、ly after extraction to ensure a representa-tive sample. Cooling the sample within the sample nozzle maycause thermal fatigue. All necessary precautions should betaken. See 7.1.3.4 and 7.2.4.7. Materials and Apparatus7.1 Extracting the Sample:7.1.1 Saturated SteamSince saturated steam is normallysamp

27、led as a two-phase fluid, made up of steam and smalldroplets of water, isokinetic sampling shall be employed. Sincesteam velocities vary with boiler load it normally is notpractical to sample isokinetically throughout the load range.Normally, the load of interest is full load or a guaranteedoverload

28、. The sampling system shall be designed to provideisokinetic sampling at this design load.7.1.1.1 At low velocities, the moisture in wet steam forms afilm along the inside surface of the steam line that entrainsFIG. 1 Effect of Non-Isokinetic SamplingD1066 112impurities (5). Samples should be extrac

29、ted at a position awayfrom the pipe wall (Fig. 2). See 7.1.3.1.7.1.2 Superheated SteamParticulates are often present insuperheated steam and these particulates can contain solublespecies (Na, Cl, SO4) that are of interest and should besampled (1,6,7). Therefore, an isokinetic sampling nozzleshould b

30、e used for sampling superheated steam in order toobtain a representative sample of both the gas and solid phases.7.1.2.1 Because the dissolved contaminants in high pressuresuperheated steam deposit on the inner surfaces of the nozzleand sample lines as the sample desuperheats, superheatedsteam sampl

31、es shall be rapidly desuperheated or condensednear the point of extraction. See 7.2.4.7.1.3 Sampling NozzlesStratification of suspended solidsin horizontal steam pipes can influence the composition of thesteam samples. To minimize the effects of stratification it isrecommended that steam sampling no

32、zzles be located in longvertical pipes. To ensure that all water droplets are carried inthe flow stream, downward flow is preferred. Nozzles whichmust be located in a horizontal pipe should be near the top ofthe pipe (2,7). Ideally, the nozzle should be installed at least 35internal pipe diameters d

33、ownstream and 4 internal pipe diam-eters upstream of any flow disturbance (elbow, tee, valve,orifice, etc.). If this is not possible, the nozzle should beinstalled so that the ratio of its distance from the upstreamdisturbance to the downstream disturbance is about 9:1.7.1.3.1 Nozzles are most frequ

34、ently located at a distancefrom the pipe wall where the actual velocity equals the averagevelocity under laminar flow, typically 0.12 times the pipe innerdiameter (Fig. 2) (1,2,7). This also ensures that the sample isextracted from a flow region removed from the pipe innersurface.7.1.3.2 Sampling No

35、zzles for Superheated SteamThenozzles described for use with saturated steam can also be usedfor superheated steam.7.1.3.3 In order to minimize the deposition of contaminantsfrom superheated steam, some experts recommended injectingcondensed and cooled sample directly into the superheatedsteam sampl

36、ing nozzle (2). This rarely used method mayinduce thermal stresses and all necessary precautions should betaken and the nozzle should be periodically inspected forcracking. An acceptable alternative is to condense the sampleimmediately after extraction. See 7.2.4 for sample line andcondensing design

37、 criteria.7.1.3.4 Design, Materials, and InstallationSamplingnozzles shall be adequately supported and shall be designedaccording to applicable codes to prevent failure due to flow-induced vibration, thermal stress, and other possible causes (8).A conical shape rather than cylindrical will reduce th

38、e effectsof vortex shedding, which can lead to fatigue failures. Strengthof the attachment to the pipe must also be considered. Nozzlesare most often made of AISI 316 (9) or other austeniticstainless steels or superalloys (1,2,7). Weld joints used fordissimilar metals are subject to high thermal str

39、esses due todifferent coefficients of thermal expansion. Care should be usedin weld rod selection and inspection of all weld joints.7.1.3.5 Sample port (tip) shall be drilled cleanly, using thestandard drill size nearest to the calculated port diameter. Thesmallest recommended port diameter is 3.18

40、mm (18 in.). Portdiameters of less than 2.38 mm (332 in.) are subject to pluggingand shall not be used. The size of the sample port is determinedby the equation:S 5 ID2v rp!/4 (1)where:S = sampling rate (by mass) of the steam,ID = size of the sample port,v = velocity of the steam in the pipe being s

41、ampled, andr = density.7.1.3.6 At least one shut off valve (commonly referred to asa root valve or isolation valve) shall be placed immediatelyafter the point from which the sample is withdrawn so that thesample line may be isolated. In high pressure applications tworoot valves are often used. The v

42、alve(s) selected should berated for the pressure/temperature of the sample source.7.1.3.7 InspectionsThe nozzle, pipe attachment, valves,tubing, and all welds should be periodically inspected forcracking, and other forms of damage. For sampling wet steam,the piping section after the nozzle should be

43、 periodicallyinspected for thinning by flow-accelerated corrosion (erosion-corrosion). For steam cycles where steam is contaminated withsodium hydroxide or chloride, inspection for cracking, particu-larly in the weld areas should be performed more frequently.During operation, the nozzle and valve as

44、sembly should bechecked for any vibration problems.7.2 Transporting the Sample:7.2.1 GeneralSample lines should be designed so that thesample remains representative of the source. See 6.1 and 7.1.1.They shall be as short as feasible to reduce lag time andchanges in sample composition. The bore diame

45、ters of thesampling nozzle, isolation valve(s), and downstream sampletubing before the sample cooler or condenser should be similar(7). The designer is responsible for ensuring that applicablestructural integrity requirements are met to prevent structuralfailure. Small tubing is vulnerable to mechan

46、ical damage andshould be protected. Once the sample is condensed it may betreated as a water sample and Practices D3370 and D5540should be followed.7.2.1.1 Traps and pockets in which solids might settle shallbe avoided, since they may be partially emptied with changesin flow conditions and may resul

47、t in sample contamination.Sample tubing shall be shaped so that sharp bends, dips, andlow points are avoided, thus preventing particulates fromFIG. 2 Isokinetic Sampling NozzleD1066 113collecting. Expansion loops or other means shall be provided toprevent undue buckling and bending when large temper

48、aturechanges occur. Such buckling and bending may damage thelines and allied equipment. Routing shall be planned to protectsample lines from exposure to extreme temperatures.7.2.2 MaterialsThe material from which the sample linesare made shall conform to the requirements of the applicablespecificati

49、ons as follows: Specification A335/A335M for pipeand Specification A269 for tubing.7.2.2.1 For sampling steam, the sampling lines shall bemade of stainless steel that is at least as corrosion resistant as18 % chromium, 8 % nickel steel (AISI 304 or 316 austeniticstainless steels are commonly used (9).7.2.3 Saturated SteamMany power generating stationscool their steam samples at a central sampling station, mostfrequently located in the chemistry laboratory. This practicehas resulted in many sampling lines exceeding 120 m (400 ft)in length and in samples being un
