METHOD AND CONFIGURATION TO REDUCE FATIGUE IN STEAM DRUMS.

摘要

A heat recovery steam generator that includes a first steam drum (118a) for receiving a flow of water and steam from an evaporator. The first steam drum is adapted to provide the flow of water and steam to a second steam drum. The second steam drum (118b) is in fluid communication with the first steam drum and receives the flow of water and steam from the first steam drum and separates steam from the flow of water and steam to form a separated steam. There is a steam flow outlet (156) positioned in the second steam drum, the steam flow outlet adapted to release the separated steam from the second steam drum.
