STEAM DISPERSION SYSTEM

摘要

A steam dispersion system includes a header defining a first end and a second end, a plurality of steam dispersion tubes extending upwardly from the header, a condensate drain outlet located at the first end, a hollow pipe positioned within the header, the pipe defining a length extending in a direction generally from the first end to the second end, the pipe defining a main humidification steam inlet located at the first end and a main steam outlet that is within the header. The hollow pipe is configured to receive steam flowing in from the main steam inlet toward the main steam outlet. The pipe may define a plurality of orifices along the length thereof for allowing steam flowing through the pipe to enter the header for distribution through the dispersion tubes. A steam re-direction structure directs steam flow leaving through the main steam outlet back toward the first end of the header.

1. A humidification steam dispersion system comprising:
a steam header defining a first end and a second end; a plurality of steam dispersion tubes extending from the header; a condensate drain outlet located at the first end of the header; a hollow pipe positioned within the header, the hollow pipe defining a length extending within the header in a direction generally from the first end to the second end, the hollow pipe defining a main humidification steam inlet located at the first end of the header and a main steam outlet within the header, wherein the hollow pipe is configured to receive steam that flows in from the main steam inlet toward the main steam outlet, the hollow pipe defining a plurality of orifices along the length thereof for allowing steam that is flowing through the hollow pipe to enter the header for distribution through the steam dispersion tubes; and a steam re-direction structure configured to direct steam flow leaving through the main steam outlet back toward the first end of the header.
