| 31. | Superheated steam is defined as steam that is heated above the boiling point at a given pressure.
|
| 32. | Four Babcock & Wilcox or four Foster Wheeler water-tube boilers generated the superheated steam needed for the turbines.
|
| 33. | A superheated steam system is dangerous.
|
| 34. | Assault with pressurized, superheated steam in autoclaves that hospitals use to sterilize instruments for surgery barely slows it.
|
| 35. | This is not generally the case for superheated steam and the ideal gas equation does not really hold.
|
| 36. | Since high-pressure superheated steam had already proved successful, it was considered the most suitable choice for high power machinery.
|
| 37. | Superheated steam is a dry gas and therefore used to drive turbines, since water droplets can severely damage turbine blades.
|
| 38. | By using superheated steam the thermal efficiency of a steam engine could be raised by as much as 50 %.
|
| 39. | Reacting to the catalyst, the propellant turns into high-pressure superheated steam that blasts out two nozzles, providing the lifting thrust.
|
| 40. | The hot combustion gas leaving the combustion turbine is then directed into a waste heat boiler to generate superheated steam.
