Using Steam & Getting It Back
Heat exchange, control valves, traps, condensate and flash recovery — the using half of the loop, and the recovering half.
- D1Heating with steam: coils, jackets and exchangers200°9 minIndirect heating done right — including the stall phenomenon that starves exchangers.
- D2Direct steam injection200°7 minHeating by contact — where DSI wins and how to do it quietly.
- D3How to select a control valve for steam200°8 minKv, critical pressure drop, characteristic and actuator — a worked selection.
- D4Desuperheaters200°7 minWhy processes want saturated steam, and how to take the superheat out.
- D5Steam traps: the complete school200°12 minTypes, selection by application, the trap station, and testing — the full working guide.
- D6Condensate recovery200°9 minWater, heat and treatment — the three values in every kilogram of condensate, and how to bring it home.
- D7Flash steam recovery200°8 minSizing the vessel and finding the duty — turning flash from plume to product.
- D8Metering steam200°8 minOrifice, vortex and the installation rules — measuring the energy, not just the flow.
- D9Hot water from steam200°7 minPHWG, calorifier or direct injection — three routes compared honestly.
- D10Safety valves200°8 minThe last line of defence — function, terminology, sizing basics and installation rules.
