Abstract
A steam generator parallel back end arrangement divides a flue gas flow into a plurality of paths in the steam generator housing. A pendant primary superheater is located in the housing near the top of the housing and a baffle wall having tubes therethrough vertically extends from the bottom of the housing in the flue gas flow. The baffle wall is divided into enclosure walls which extend upwardly in the housing and define an interior space therebetween. A top directional baffle is connected to the enclosure walls for forming a gas-tight vestibule in which an inlet header of a reheater and an outlet header of an economizer are supported and contained therein for protection from the flue gas environment.
