TRANSITION CASTING FOR BOILER WITH STEAM COOLED UPPER FURNACE

Transition castings are disclosed which comprise a steam tube and a water tube, which are joined together by membranes. A heat transfer fin extends from the membrane and abuts the water tube. The steam tube bends such that an upper end is on one side of the water tube, and a lower end is on an opposite side of the water tube. The transition castings are used in a transition section of a boiler in which the furnace is divided into a lower furnace and an upper furnace. The lower furnace uses water-cooled membrane walls, while the upper furnace uses steam-cooled membrane walls that act as superheating surfaces. The transition casting joins the lower furnace and the upper furnace together.

Once-through evaporator systems

The present application provides a method of adjusting a feedwater mass flow rate to maintain a constant steam temperature in an evaporator section. The method may include the steps of determining a change in a number of operational parameters, predicting a change in steam temperature based on the number of operational parameters, combining the predicted changes in steam temperature, determining a feedforward signal based on dynamically offsetting the combined predicted changes in steam temperature, and changing the mass flow rate of feedwater based on the feedforward signal.
