Steam Flow Measurements for District Energy and District Heating

3-12-2019

every major city around the globe has a district energy system that provides thermals to its buildings. in these underground infrastructures,thermal energy is provided to multiple buildings from a central energy plant or plants.24 hours a day ,7 days a week steam or hot water produced at the district energy plants is transferred to buildings ,universities,office buildings ,etc .for heating.

in district energy application,multiparameter vortex flowmeters for measuring steam flow allow you to sub-allocate steam usage and report it to a central plant for increased energy efficiency. additionally,vortex meters through accurate flow monitoring improves porcess quality,optimize accountability processes and reduces downtime.

steam flow energy generated from boiler is moved dowmstream in the steam pipeline then distributed to city buildings. facility/district engineers need to measure the steam output and distribution of the steam precisely. however ,one of the key challenges district energy managers have is actully making the steam flow measurement itself, because it is rare that you can turn off the steam. that is why a multivariable mass vortex flow meter is a good option for this application.

why vortex mass flow measurement ?

vortex mass flow measurement receive a true mass flow measurement in lbs/hr, with that data ,boiler efficiency, heat efficient, etc. all can be calculated correctly.
