DESCRIPTION AND PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Desuperheaters are used to reduce steam temperature by injecting atomized water into the superheated
steam flow. Desuperheater nozzles can be lance mounted as shown in Figure 1 or manifold mounted
as shown in Figures 2 and 3. Lance mounted desuperheaters can be equipped with MaxCool MCX,
VaporCool, or VaporCool MicroNozzle nozzles. Manifold mounted desuperheaters can be equipped with
MaxCool MCX or VaporCool MicroNozzle nozzles.

MaxCool MCX Nozzle
The MaxCool MCX nozzle is a variable area hollow cone nozzle that produces a fine droplet spray mist.
Figure 4 shows a cross-section of the nozzle assembly with the parts identified. The maximum rangeability for the MaxCool MCX nozzle is approximately 20:1.
The plug is assembled through the seat and is biased against the seat with a spring. The spring is held
in place with a retainer that is screwed onto the plug. The retainer limits the stroke of the plug to ensure
proper water atomization. A castle nut with an expansion pin or a bent washer locks the assembly
together.
The geometry of the nozzle assembly is optimized to provide efficient cooling by minimizing water
droplet size. When the Δp between the cooling water and the steam is sufficient to overcome the preload
of the spring, the plug moves away from the seat and cooling water circulates through the nozzle openings. As the water moves down the conical shaped plug and exits past the sharp edges of the narrow
plug opening, the cooling water is atomized into a fine spray mist.

DESUPERHEATER INSTALLATION (LANCE MOUNTED)
1. The desuperheater mounting flange and the cooling water flange are manufactured with the bolting
holes straddling the steam pipe centerline and the nozzle head. Exceptions to this rule must be
clearly stated on the Technical Requirement Sheet when the desuperheater is ordered.
cc WARNING: When unpacking the desuperheater, care should be given to prevent foreign
particles from entering the cooling water flange opening. These particles can block the
small passages in the nozzles and impede water atomization.
2.
Before installing, physically measure the distance from the mounting flange gasket surface to the
center of the nozzle head. Ensure that this distance is equal to the distance between the gasket
surface plus gasket thickness of the steam pipe mounting flange and the steam pipe centerline.
This is to ensure the spray nozzles are centered in the steam pipe. See Figure 10.
Figure 10: View of spray nozzle centered in steam pipe
Centerline of nozzle coincides
with centerline of steam pipe
Note: To ensure nozzles remain securely fastened, nozzles are tack welded to the lance at the factory.
3.
Remove the covers from the desuperheater openings. While positioning the desuperheater in the
steam line, ensure that the nozzle head is on the steam downstream side of the desuperheater
lance. Use a line gasket appropriate for the pressure class on the mounting flange and the cooling
water flange.
4.
Before connecting the cooling water line to the desuperheater the following is recommended:
a.A cooling water supply with particles less than 0.005 inch (.13 mm) diameter. If particles larger
than this could be present, a strainer should be installed.
11
b.Flush the water line and cooling water control valve to eliminate contamination.
flowserve.com
Desuperheaters FCD VLENIM0115-00– 09/11
aa C
AUTION: Failure to prevent particulate or debris from entering the desuperheater can
cause malfunction of the nozzles, poor temperature control, and dangerous equipment
failures.
5.
Install and tighten line bolting on the mounting flange and cooling water flange to typical line
bolting torque values.
OPERATION
Desuperheaters should maintain the following conditions to operate optimally.
1.
The cooling water control valve should be capable of tight ASME Class V or VI shutoff.
cc WARNING: Leaky cooling water valves could cause dripping water to impinge on equipment causing thermal shock resulting in equipment damage.
aa CAUTION: If the temperature difference between the cooling water and the steam is
greater than about 800°F (427°C) thermal fatigue may need to be considered more
closely.
2.
The minimum steam velocity should generally be 33 ft/s (10 m/s), but should be greater than the
limits shown in Figure 11. The maximum steam velocity generally is 250 ft/s (76 m/s) but should
not exceed 350 ft/s (107 m/s).
Figure 11: Minimum Steam Velocity for Atomization
cc WARNING: Steam velocities below the minimum values listed may not provide adequate
turbulence for mixing. This could result in cooling water falling out of the steam and impinging
on the pipe resulting in equipment damage.
cc WARNING: Steam velocities higher than the maximum values listed may result in stratified
steam in the piping and may require excessive straight pipe lengths for adequate cooling water
evaporation which could result in equipment damage.
3.
12
For the MaxCool MCX nozzle the minimum pressure drop between the steam and the cooling water
should be 2.0 bar (29 psig) for a 1 bar (14.5 psig) cracking pressure nozzle, 4 bar (58 psig) for a 3
bar (43.5 psig) cracking pressure nozzle, and 6 bar (87 psig) for a 5 bar (72.5 psig) cracking pressure nozzle. The minimum pressure drops between the steam and the cooling water for VaporCool
and VaporCool MicroNozzles are shown in Tables 3 and 4.
Desuperheaters FCD VLENIM0115-00 – 09/11
cc WARNING: Operating nozzles below the minimum ΔP creates undeveloped water spray
patterns with large droplet sizes which could impinge on equipment causing thermal
shock resulting in equipment damage.
4.
The maximum pressure drop between the steam and the water should be approximately 30.0 bar
(435 psi) for the MaxCool MCX nozzle. The optimum maximum pressure drop for the VaporCool
nozzle is 10 Bar (145 psi), but pressure drops up to 20 Bar (290 psi) are acceptable. The maximum
pressure drop for the VaporCool MicroNozzle is 40 Bar (580 psi).
5.
Higher cooling water temperatures will provide for more efficient atomization and evaporation.
6.
Condensate is most likely to build up in lines during system startup and shutdown. The effects of
corrosion and thermal shock on steam pipes can be reduced by minimizing process deviations.
7.
The cooling water control valve should have a “fail close" actuator.
8.
To enhance proper cooling water evaporation there should be a minimum of 10 feet (3 meters)
of straight downstream pipe from the desuperheater location with a slight downward gradient.
Factors such as velocity, how close the steam temperature is to saturation temperature, percent
of cooling water being injected, pipe diameter, etc. can require longer straight pipe lengths. The
minimum required straight pipe length for the actual application is provided on the desuperheater
sizing sheet.
cc WARNING: Inadequate straight pipe length does not allow sufficient time for the cooling
water to evaporate allowing cooling water impingement on the piping system, especially
the downstream elbow, causing thermal fatigue and premature failure.
9.
To allow for accurate temperature feedback, the temperature sensor(s) should be located a
minimum distance of 12 ft downstream of the desuperheater. Factors such as velocity, how close
the steam temperature is to saturation temperature, percent of cooling water being injected, pipe
diameter, etc. can require longer distances to the temperature sensor. The minimum required
distance to the temperature sensor for the actual application is provided on the desuperheater
sizing sheet. Multiple shielded temperature sensors will provide more accurate average feedback.
cc WARNING: Inadequate distance from the desuperheater to the temperature sensor can
cause inaccurate temperature measurement resulting in poor process control.
10. A pipe drain and/or steam trap should be placed at least 6 pipe diameters downstream of the
desuperheater.
11. When cooling water flows over 50 gpm are required, for optimum performance, consider using
multiple nozzles and/or multiple injection sites. This allows smaller water droplet sizes, better
cooling water evaporation, and lower risk of cooling water impingement on the piping system.
MAINTENANCE (LANCE MOUNTED)
Maintenance of lance mounted desuperheater nozzles may be required if:
•
A degradation in cooling efficiency is noted while maintaining constant steam process conditions.
This may be an indication that the nozzle is partially plugged.
•
The steam process conditions change. If the steam load increases, the nozzle may need to be
upsized to keep the downstream steam at the required temperature.
