Abstract
A particular papermachine and type of pulp stock for forming a particular basis weight web are analyzed for deriving a correlation between pulp stock drainage rate and the lowest obtainable critical moisture content of said paper web. From knowledge of the lowest critical moisture content and main steam pressure, differential pressure values between the several dryer pressure sections of the papermachine are determined for drying said web along the most energy-efficient drying rate trajectory. Also disclosed is a dryer steam pressure differential control program for maintenance of a pre-determined magnitude of condensate inventory within the drying cylinders under normal running conditions and under conditions of interrupted web continuity.
