Vaporization system
The present invention makes it possible to reduce the size of a vaporization system by eliminating the need for conduits in the vaporization system, without it being necessary to form a flow path in order for a supply rate controller to be mounted inside a vaporizer, and is formed by a vaporizer that vaporizes a liquid material; a supply rate controller that controls a supply rate of the liquid material to the vaporizer; and a manifold block inside which an internal flow path is formed, and that has a device mounting surface on which both the vaporizer and the supply rate controller are mounted, wherein, as a result of the vaporizer and the supply rate controller being mounted on the device mounting surface, they are connected together via the flow path.
STEAM GENERATION CONTROL METHOD
Provided is a steam generation method for a steam generation system The method includes: S1, controlling the liquid pump (3) to operate, driving liquid from the liquid inlet (1) through the inlet valve (4) to the steam heater (5) in a heating state; S2, during the operation of the liquid pump (3), controlling the inlet valve (4) to alternately open and close at a preset frequency, causing the liquid to intermittently pass through the inlet valve (4). The liquid, after passing through the inlet valve (4), is delivered in a pulsed flow to the steam heater (5), where each pulsed flow continuously moves and is at least partially evaporated to produce steam before exiting the steam heater (5).

Systems and Methods for Providing Override Control for a Feedwater Pump Recirculation Valve
Systems and methods for providing override control for a feedwater pump recirculation valve are provided. According to one embodiment, a system may include a controller and a processor communicatively coupled to the controller. The processor may be configured to receive one or more measurements associated with pump motor power driving feedwater pump flow. The feedwater pump recirculation valve may be configured to maintain a predetermined minimum recirculation flow through the feedwater pump by regulating recirculation pump flow through a recirculation line. The processor may be also configured to calculate, based at least in part on the one or more measurements, the recirculation pump flow, and compare the recirculation pump flow to the predetermined minimum recirculation flow. Based at least in part on the comparing, the processor may selectively provide an override control signal to the feedwater pump recirculation valve to selectively modify the recirculation pump flow.
