What is the top aspects that decide the design of Heat Recovery Steam Generator commercially?
There are actually three things that you should look at when designing a heat recovery steam generator. First, what is the pressure and quantity of steam available. Second how much of this can be used in your process. Third the cost in dollars of producing this steam which in the case of heat reclaim would be the amortized cost of the equipment, the estimated lifetime of the equipment and the annual cost to maintain the equipment compared to the cost to maintain and fuel the existing equipment. If there is no existing boiler, this amortized cost would have to be included. There are numerous firms out there that manufacture equipment to generate steam from waste heat. The specific design would depend on the heat source and its temperature.
mercially i would think would be small like small areas so little steam would be needed just to warm like 40 to 60 lbs will insulate well
Having a use for the steam of the temperature and pressure which can be generated.
