Application
Condensate flash vessel
Condensate flash vessels can be used in all
steam plants where condensate from steam
consumers is reduced to a lower pressure.
This pressure drop constitutes a change of
the energy content that causes some of the
condensate to revaporize and form flash
steam.
In the flash vessel the flash steam is separated from the water, and then fed into a
low-pressure steam system. The condensate
remaining in the flash vessel is discharged
into a condensate tank.
