Abstract
Method of improving the permissible load-varying speed of a once-through steam generator having a water separating vessel connected between a heating surface of the once-through steam generator and a heating surface of a superheater with a valve connected into a steam delivery line extending from the water separating device to the superheater heating surface, the valve being openable during start-up and shut-down of the once-through steam generator, which includes closing the valve to such a limited extent, depending upon the temperature of the water separating vessel, that the temperature of the water separating vessel corresponds to boiling temperature of feedwater supplied to the once-through steam generator at a pressure at which a transition occurs with respect to pure once-through operation, and device for performing the foregoing method.
