FOREWORD (This Foreword is not part of ASME PTC 12.3-1997.) On September 1, 1989, the Board on Performance Test Codes (BPTC) voted to reactivate the Pe
10、rformance Test Code committee, PTC 12.3, to undertake the revision of PTC 12.3- 1977, the Performance Test Code on Deaerators. Shortly thereafter, the Committee was reconstituted, and had its first meeting on May 22-23, 1991, with 3 of the original members on the new Committee. One of the requiremen
11、ts for the satisfactory operation of the boiler feed system in a steam plant is high quality boiler feedwater, freefrom dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide. To meet the dissolved oxygen requirements of the steam generator, improvements in the design of mechanical deaerators have been made. Design re
12、quirements demand extreme reliability of oxygen testing of boiler feedwater. This Code was approved by the PTC 12.3 committee on May 31, 1996. It was then approved and adopted by the Council as a Standard practice of the Society by action of the BPTC on October 25, 1996. This Performance Test Code w
13、as also approved as an American National Standard by the ANSI Board of Standards Review on February 6,1997. . Ill NOTICE All Performance Test Codes MUST adhere to the requirements of PTC 1, GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS. The following information is based on that document and is included here for emphasis an
14、d for the convenience of the user of this Code. It is expected that the Code user is fully cognizant of Parts I and I11 of PTC 1 and has read them prior to applying this Code. ASME Performance Test Codes provide test procedures which yield results of the highest level of accuracy consistent with the
15、 best engineering knowledge and practice currently available. They were developed by balanced committees representing all con- cerned interests. They specify procedures, instrumentation, equipment operating require- ments, calculation methods, and uncertainty analysis. When tests are run ih accordan
16、ce with this 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 contractual guarantees. Therefore, it is recommended
17、 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 interpret how such compari- sons shall be made. i

Normally, dissolved o
28、xygen levels of 7 pg/L (ppb) or less can be achieved. A deaerator is designed to heat feedwater to the temperature of saturated steam at the pressure within the deaerator. 0.2 Deaerators, or deaerating heaters, may utilize many different designs. In general, there is a first stage which involves spr
29、aying water into the steam space where it is heated and partially deaerated. Water is discharged from spray nozzles or other spray devices as thin films, sheets or droplets. This stage removes more than 90% of the dissolved oxygen. Venting of gases removed from the water may occur through an externa
30、l shell and tube condenser or through an internal direct-contact vent condenser in the upper steam space on the deaerator. The condensing of steam in the apparatus reduces its pressure progressively, as it travels upward, to a minimum pressure in the area of the vent condenser. Noncondensable gases
31、plus a small amount of steam pass through the vent. The falling water, containing some dissolved gases, may be directed to a second stage which may be a tray section where it is mixed with, and mechanically scrubbed by, the heating steam. Thin films of water, formed by water overflowing the lips of
32、the trays, are deaerated further by the incoming steam. Alternatively, the second stage may be a steam scrubber and/or reboiler. Here the water mixes with the incoming heating steam, with the water becom- ing slightly superheated during the heating and scrub- bing process. Some flashing takes place
33、as it is discharged into the steam space where final deaera- tion takes place. There are other types of deaerators which use sprays or spray pipes of various types with various types of packing such as packing rings, saddles, INTRODUCTION etc., on their own or in combination. There are also “integra
34、l“ and other types of deaerators. Deaerators may be designed to operate at any pressure. 0.3 Accurate measurements of dissolved oxygen are not obtained easily. Some test methods and proce- dures, while satisfactory for chemical control of the feedwater, are inadequate for guarantee-acceptance purpos
35、es. The fact that there are many test methods available and wide choices of apparatus and proce- dures which may be employed further complicates this problem. With the magnitude of permissible error of the test defined, it becomes apparent that the test method, test apparatus, and test procedure mus
36、t be integrated and evaluated so that reliable measurement can be achieved. On-line analyzers and colorimetric test methods do not meet the methodology of measurement uncertainty per PTC 19.1. The test methods and procedures described herein do meet the methodology of PTC 19.1 The Test described in
37、Subsection 4.2 is the referee method because it provides a method which has been studied and tested for accuracy and reliability. 0.4 Before formulating a test to determine the perform- ance of deaerators, the Performance Test Code on General Instructions (PTC-1) should be studied and followed in de
38、tail. In particular, before any test is undertaken, the test objectives shall be defined and agreed by the parties to the test. The Code on Definitions and Values (PTC-2) de- fines technical terms and numerical constants which are used throughout this Code with the meanings and values therein establ
39、ished. The PTC 19 Series Supplements (Instruments and Apparatus Supplements) gives descriptions of, and standard directions for, the use and calibration of measuring devices, including an estimate of the level 1 ASME PTC 12.3-1997 of accuracy obtainable. These supplements provide guidance on the app
40、lication of some of the special- ized techniques used in this code. DEAERATORS 2 DEAERATORS ASME PTC 12.3-1997 SECTION 1 - OBJECT AND SCOPE 1.1 Object The purpose of this Code is to provide rules and test procedures that are to be used to determine the performance of deaerators with regard to the fo
41、llowing: (a) residual dissolved oxygen in the deaerated water, (b) terminal temperature difference (TTD), if any, between the deaerated water and the saturated steam temperature corresponding to the pressure in the steam zone adjacent to the interface between the steam and the collected deaerated wa
42、ter. 1.2 Scope 1.2.1 This Code applies to deaerating heaters and deaerators equipped with either shell-and-tube or direct contact, vent-condensing sections. 1.2.2 The Code describes the test method and procedures for the determination of dissolved oxygen in water for deaerating equipment at concentr
43、ations up to 75 pg/L (ppb). This Code also describes the method for determining the terminal temperature difference (TTD). Other methods of dissolved oxygen measurement are included in Appendices A, B and C. These may be used as an adjunct to the Code. 1.3 Uncertainty An uncertainty analysis of the
44、test method for determination of dissolved oxygen in the deaerated water and terminal temperature difference is pro- vided. This uncertainty procedure serves as a guide for pretest and post-test uncertainty calculations when the Code is used. The expected test uncertainty for dissolved oxygen is 22.
45、6 pg/L (ppb) and for terminal temperature difference is 20.6“C (2 1 OF).
