Abstract
An arrangement includes a steam saturator for producing saturated steam and a device for refeeding the liquid evaporated in the steam saturator. The steam saturator includes a steam inlet via which steam is delivered to the steam saturator, a steam outlet for the saturated steam produced, a condensate inlet via which condensate is delivered to the steam saturator, and a condensate return line. In a lower region of the steam saturator, a condensate liquid level that is fluidically connected to the condensate return line is maintained. The condensate return line is connected to the device, which is a condenser and comprises a cooling apparatus for condensing steam. In the steam saturator, the evaporated liquid is replaced only if the condensate level in the steam saturator drops, through condensation of saturated steam delivered from the steam saturator to the condenser and is then condensed in the condenser by the cooling apparatus.
