Abstract

Abstract A known reheat type exhaust gas boiler of the type having superheaters and reheaters disposed in parallel in the most upstream portion of an exhaust gas boiler main body, is improved by simplifying the structure and providing more effective recovery of heat from the exhaust gas. The superheaters and reheaters are divided into a plurality of stages. A high-temperature side superheater and a high-temperature side reheater are disposed in parallel in the most upstream portion of the gas flow. A low-temperature side reheater is disposed on the downstream side of the high-temperature side superheater, while a low-temperature side superheater is disposed on the downstream side of the high-temperature side reheater. The high-temperature side superheater and the high-temperature side reheater are formed so as to have an identical heat transfer tube outer diameter, an identical tube pitch in the transverse direction of the main body, an identical tube pitch in the longitudinal direction and an identical number of tube rows in the longitudinal direction. Likewise, the low-temperature side reheater and the low-temperature side superheater are formed so as to have an identical heater transfer tube outer diameter, an identical tube pitch in the transverse direction of the main body, an identical tube pitch in the longitudinal direction and an identical number of tube rows in the longitudinal direction.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 204 words
A reheat type exhaust gas boiler comprising: an exhaust gas boiler main body through which exhaust gases are adapted to flow in a generally longitudinal direction; a high-temperature side superheater and a high-temperature side reheater mounted in parallel in a most upstream portion of said main body and each including a plurality of heat transfer tubes; a low-temperature side reheater including a plurality of heat transfer tubes and being mounted in said main body on a downstream side of said high-temperature side superheater; a low-temperature side superheater including a plurality of heat transfer tubes and being mounted in said main body on a downstream side of said high-temperature reheater; said plurality of heat transfer tubes of said high-temperature side superheater having tube outer diameters, a number of rows along the longitudinal direction and pitches in both the longitudinal and transverse directions equal to those of said plurality of heat transfer tubes of said high-temperature side reheater; and said plurality of heat transfer tubes of said low-temperature side superheater having tube outer diameters, a number of rows along the longitudinal direction and pitches in both the longitudinal and transverse directions equal to those of said plurality of heat transfer tubes of said low-temperature side reheater.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 204 words
A reheat type exhaust gas boiler comprising: an exhaust gas boiler main body through which exhaust gases are adapted to flow in a generally longitudinal direction; a high-temperature side superheater and a high-temperature side reheater mounted in parallel in a most upstream portion of said main body and each including a plurality of heat transfer tubes; a low-temperature side reheater including a plurality of heat transfer tubes and being mounted in said main body on a downstream side of said high-temperature side superheater; a low-temperature side superheater including a plurality of heat transfer tubes and being mounted in said main body on a downstream side of said high-temperature reheater; said plurality of heat transfer tubes of said high-temperature side superheater having tube outer diameters, a number of rows along the longitudinal direction and pitches in both the longitudinal and transverse directions equal to those of said plurality of heat transfer tubes of said high-temperature side reheater; and said plurality of heat transfer tubes of said low-temperature side superheater having tube outer diameters, a number of rows along the longitudinal direction and pitches in both the longitudinal and transverse directions equal to those of said plurality of heat transfer tubes of said low-temperature side reheater.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 55 words
A reheat type exhaust gas boiler as recited in claim 1, further comprising a primary superheater mounted transversely in said main body on a downstream side of said low temperature side superheater and said low-temperature side reheater; and an outlet of said primary superheater being fluidically connected to an inlet of said low-temperature side superheater.
