When combined cycle plants are run at low loads, problems often arise with overspray from attemperators using traditional mechanical atomization. To address this issue, power plants can upgrade to ...

The fundamental design principles and process for modern steam desuperheating, or the attemperation of superheated steam in the power generation industry, have been evolving since the early 1930s.

Controlling spray nozzles to spray exactly when needed can be problematic. With simple spray nozzles - hydraulic nozzles - the only input variable is the fluid pressure supplied to the nozzle.
