Abstract

A fossil-fired steam generator for a steam power station includes a number of economizer, evaporator and superheater heating surfaces forming a flow path through which a flow medium flows in a plurality of pressure stages. In a high-pressure stage, an overflow line is connected to the flow path on its inlet side and leads to an injection valve disposed upstream in the flow path from a superheater heating surface in a medium-pressure stage on the flow medium side. The overflow line has two supply lines of which a first supply line branches off on the flow medium side upstream from a high-pressure preheater and a second supply line branches off on the flow medium side downstream from the high-pressure preheater.

Claims (17)

1. A fossil-fired steam generator for a steam power station, comprising:

a plurality of pressure stages forming a flow path through which a flow medium flows, the flow medium comprising water/steam,

wherein the plurality of pressure stages include a high pressure stage and a medium pressure stage,

wherein the high pressure stage comprises in a fluid flow direction through which the flow medium flows, a preheater, an economizer, and an evaporator,

wherein the medium pressure stage comprises in a fluid flow direction through which the flow medium flows an injection valve and a superheater heating surface,

wherein in the high-pressure stage, an overflow line is connected to the flow path at an inlet to the high pressure stage on its inlet side and leads to the injection valve disposed upstream in the flow path from the superheater heating surface in the medium-pressure stage on a flow medium side,

wherein the overflow line has two supply lines of which supply the flow medium to the overflow line,

wherein a first supply line branches off on the flow medium side upstream from the high-pressure preheater and a second supply line branches off on the flow medium side downstream from the high-pressure preheater, and

wherein the flow medium is injected into the inlet of the high pressure stage by a feed pump.

2. The fossil-fired steam generator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second supply line branches off on the flow medium side downstream from all high-pressure preheaters.

3. The fossil-fired steam generator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first supply line branches off on the flow medium side upstream from all high-pressure preheaters.

4. The fossil-fired steam generator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a check valve flap is disposed in one of the supply lines and a throughflow regulation valve is disposed in the other supply line.

5. The fossil-fired steam generator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a check valve flap is disposed in the first supply line and a throughflow regulation valve is disposed in the second supply line.

6. The fossil-fired steam generator as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the first supply line branches off from a feed pump.

7. The fossil-fired steam generator as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a throughflow measurement device is disposed in the flow path on the flow medium side downstream from the branch of the second supply line.

8. A steam power station, comprising:

a fossil-fired steam generator as claimed in claim 1 .
