Steam header

The steam cylinder and steam header are the main supporting equipment of the boiler. They are used to distribute the steam generated when the boiler is running. They are pressure-bearing equipment and pressure vessels. Their pressure bearing capacity and capacity should correspond to the supporting boiler.

Product Details

产品描述

1.Overview

The header is a component used in heat exchangers or boiler equipment, usually used to collect or distribute fluids (such as water, steam or other media). It is an important part of the thermal system, used to evenly distribute the fluid, reduce flow rate fluctuations, and improve equipment operation efficiency and system stability.

2.Main functions of the header

2.1. Fluid distribution: evenly distribute the fluid to the flow channels of each heat exchanger unit or equipment.

2.2. Fluid collection: collect the fluids returned from various parts of the equipment for subsequent processing or discharge.

2.3. Pressure balance: through the header, the fluid pressure is evenly distributed to avoid excessive or insufficient local pressure.

2.4. System connection: convenient pipeline connection and reduce complex pipeline layout.

3.Common materials

• Carbon steel: suitable for working conditions of normal temperature and pressure.

• Stainless steel: suitable for highly corrosive media and higher temperatures.

• Aluminum alloy: mainly used for light equipment, with good corrosion resistance.

• Copper alloy: often used in headers in refrigeration systems, with excellent thermal conductivity.

4.Application areas

• Boiler system: headers are used to distribute steam or hot water to improve thermal efficiency.

• Heat exchanger system: such as plate heat exchangers and tube heat exchangers, headers can connect multiple groups of heat exchange units.

• Air conditioning and refrigeration: used for distribution and return of refrigerants.

• Chemical and petrochemical: distribution of corrosive fluids.
