Abstract

The superheater is an important boiler accessory which is widely used in power generation, sugar factories and process industries for ensuring good quality of steam for power generation. This increases the efficiency and life of the turbine blades for thermal power plant. In the research work, pendant type convective superheater is designed for 20 Tonnes/hr for power generation in food processing industry with steam outlet pressure of 45 kg/cm2 and temperature of 450 °C. The superheater was designed considering thermal and mechanical aspects. The process of thermal design involved calculation of overall heat transfer coefficient and surface area for heat transfer. Three-dimensional model of superheater using CATIA V5R20 was created and analysed. The process of mechanical design was used to calculate the working pressure and ensured safe design of superheater.
