Q:How to choose the right type of steam generator

A: When choosing a steam generator model, everyone should first clarify the amount of steam used, and then decide to use a steam generator with the corresponding power. Let us let the steam generator manufacturer introduce you.
There are generally three methods for calculating steam usage:
1. The steam consumption is calculated according to the heat transfer calculation formula. Heat transfer equations typically estimate steam usage by analyzing the heat output of the equipment. This method is more complicated, because some factors are unstable, and the results obtained may have certain errors.
2. A flow meter can be used to perform a direct measurement based on steam usage.
3. Apply the rated thermal power given by the equipment manufacturer. Equipment manufacturers usually indicate the standard rated thermal power on the equipment identification plate. Rated heating power is usually used to mark the heat output in KW, while the steam usage in kg/h depends on the selected steam pressure.

According to the specific use of steam, the steam consumption can be calculated by the following methods:
1. Selection of laundry room steam generator
The key to choosing a laundry steam generator model is based on the laundry equipment. General laundry equipment includes washing machines, dry cleaning equipment, drying equipment, ironing machines, etc. In general, the amount of steam used should be indicated on the laundry equipment.
2. Hotel steam generator model selection
The key to choosing a hotel steam generator model is to estimate and determine the amount of steam required by the steam generator according to the total number of hotel rooms, personnel size, occupancy rate, laundry time and various factors.
3. Selection of steam generator models in factories and other occasions
When deciding on a steam generator in factories and other situations, if you have used a steam generator in the past, you can choose a model based on past usage. Steam generators shall be determined from the above calculations, measurements and manufacturer’s power ratings relative to new process or new construction projects.
