Kondenstopların Enerji Verimliliğine Etkileri ve Enerji Maliyet Analizi: Bir Tekstil Firması Örneği

Buharı kullanan ve buhar hatlarının yoğun olduğu çeşitli endüstriyel tesislerde, kondenstoplar enerji verimliliği için oldukça önemli ekipmanlardır. Çalışmamızda kondestopların çeşitleri, kullanım özellikleri ve uygulamada karşılaşılan aksaklıklar (montaj, ebatları, malzeme uygunluğu, çalışma şartları) bakımından en çok görülen kondenstop problemleri anlatılmaktadır. Genel kondenstop problemlerinin oluşum nedenleri, bakım ve onarım için yapılması ve dikkat edilmesi gerekenler ayrıntılı açıklanmaktadır. Bir endüstriyel tesisin buhar hatlarının kayıp ölçümü ve kondenstopların enerji kayıp maliyetleri hesaplanarak, ekonomik önemleri de gösterilmektedir. Analizler sonucunda, 105 kondenstop olan fabrikanın kondenstoplardan bir yıllık enerji kayıp maliyetinin 561,384 USD olduğu, bakım ve tamir işlemlerinden sonra 93,287 USD düştüğü tespit edilmiştir.

Impact of Steam Traps On Energy Efficiency and Energy Cost Analysis: The Case of a Textile Factory

Steam traps are critical to energy efficiency in many industrial facilities. The types of steam traps, their uses, and application problems (such as installation, sizing, material compatibility, working conditions) have been explained in this study. The most common causes of steam trap problems and methods for maintenance and repair are explained in detail. Steam leakage measurements in an industrial plant were used to demonstrate the economic significance of steam traps. Based on the analyses, the one-year energy loss cost for the plant with 105 steam traps was determined to be $561,384, and was reduced to $93,287 after the maintenance period.

Keywords:

Steam trap, energy efficiency, condensate, steam leakage, economic cost,
