How much electricity can a ton of steam from a medium-temperature and medium-pressure boiler generate?

30 Dec 2022

Thermal power generation is an important way to generate electricity. Coal is an important strategic resource in thermal power generation, and it is also one of the raw materials. Its process is actually very simple, that is, by burning coal, the hot water heated after burning is turned into water vapor, which drives the generator and is finally converted into electric energy. Then, some users ask how much electricity a ton of steam from a medium-temperature and medium-pressure boiler can generate.

 

How much electricity a ton of steam in a medium-temperature boiler can generate is the conversion of heat energy, which has a lot to do with the quality of coal, and the quality is related to the heat energy generated by the same weight of coal. We can take the high-quality coal as an example and reference standard. The heat energy generated by burning one kilogram of coal can probably reach nearly 30 joules. The lowest one is about 12 joules.

 

However, according to the domestic standard coal, it is actually the kind of coal with the best quality. If calculated according to this kind of coal, the heat energy produced by one ton of coal after burning can reach 3 * 10 10 joules. According to re-efficiency, 60% of heat energy is generally lost, that is to say, in fact, it is 40% when it is converted. If calculated in this way, the power generated by one ton of coal can reach 3250KwH, that is, 3,250 degrees. One ton of coal can produce about 6 tons of saturated steam, so one ton of steam from medium-temperature and medium-pressure boiler can generate about 500 degrees of electricity.

 

How much electricity can be generated per ton of steam from the above-mentioned medium-temperature and medium-pressure boiler is only an estimated value. In addition to the fuel calorific value, it should be comprehensively calculated according to the boiler thermal efficiency and generator efficiency.
