1 DESUPERHEATING CONTROL VALVE STRAIGHT-WAY 1-5900 SERIES
DESUPERHEATING CONTROL VALVE STRAIGHT-WAY 1-5900 SERIES Description 1-5900 valve, derived from 1-6933 series, is provided with straight-way globe body and cage trim. The pressure reduction is performed through two stages; the first one is intended for flow control, while the second one is a fixed throttling section. The valve may have different performances and applications, also depending on flow orientation, either over or under the plug. The 1 st stage is provided with single or multiple cage trim, same as 1-6933 series. The 2 nd stage may consist of a silencer installed on valve outlet, or, for less severe applications, of a drilled basket mounted under the seat ring; such a basket also protects the body from the erosion when flow direction is over the seat. 1-5990 model is provided both with the basket under the seat ring and the silencer at body outlet. The aforementioned silencer may be either single or multiple cage type (max 3), or consist of an integral Limiphon disk stack welded to the outlet connection. For sizes over 12" the HAS absorption silencer (reactive type) is also available. Only multistage models, mainly the ones provided with Limiphon stack, may be considered as silencers. As a matter of fact, in aforementioned cases, part of the noise generated by the pressure reduction in the first stage is absorbed and transformed into heat inside the silencer, independently from the flow rate. The steam coming out from the silencer enters the desuperheater injection chamber through an annular section where the velocity is kept at a suitable value to enhance the desuperheating efficiency. Performance of desuperheating system depends on the type of adopted devices and are described in relevant technical pamphlets, where piping characteristics (size, velocities, straight lengths, etc.) and minimum probe distance for temperature control are shown. 2
Applications low/medium capacity pressure reduction/desuperheating processes - low/medium pressure turbine by-pass with operating temperature lower than 500 C cogeneration plants, even for continuous control services requiring tight shut-off in closed position good performances under the acoustic view point, especially with limited turn-down some limitations as far as p 1 /p 2 ratio is concerned, mainly in models provided with cage silencer Codification 1-5 9 X X 0 3 4 5 6 7 Desuperheater type undefined LFP fixed area nozzle LVL, LVP or LVC spring type nozzle LVM multiple Spraysat steam-assisted fixed nozzle 0 1 4 5 6 8 9 Downstream silencer type undefined without silencer (same as 1-6933 with outlet desuperheater) disk or drilled basket type silencer (max 3 stages) HAS reactive adsorption silencer (max 3+1 stages) Limiphon silencer (5 to about 20 stages) Basket under the seat without silencer - flow over the seat Basket under the seat + silencer - flow over the seat The basket under the seat ring is sometime convenient when a low pressure drop silencer (e.g. single cage type) is provided; it is normally useless where multi-cage, HAS or Limiphon silencers are installed.

Selection 1-5910 - flow rate on low pressure services and not severe allowable pressure level - no turn-down limit 1-5940 - ideal solution for low pressure medium capacity turbine by-pass - combined cage arrangement of 1 st and 2 nd stage enables to perfectly meet such application requirements as far as process control and generated noise are concerned 1-5950 - low noise on low/medium pressure and flow rate services - limited turndown 1-5960 - some capacity and turn-down limits - suitable solution for low noise and p and p 1 /p 2 values applications 1-5980 - mounting a basket just under the seat ring makes the design very compact and economic, suitable for limited p 1 /p 2 ratios (max 1:6 approximately) and only for flow over the plug - desuperheating efficiency of this model is basically worse then in other models; Spraysat injector (1-5986) is often preferable 1-5990 - alternate 1-5940 design for er p 1 /p 2 ratios or lower allowable noise. Aforementioned selection criteria are summarized in the table shown at page 5. flow-to-open / flow-to-close - flow-to-close direction (over the plug) is selected when a tight shut-off is required for temperature services - in such a case piloted plugs may be used also with conventional pneumatic actuators. Balanced plugs provided with special inserts available only with hydraulic, electric or special pneumatic actuators - the flow-to-open design has no particular limitation only when it is possible to use unbalanced plugs (low p s and seat diameters) or the temperature allows the use of Teflon seal rings. WATER STEAM 1-5986 flow-to-close - flow control by single cage - drilled basket under the seat - unbalanced plug - temperature service and tight shut-off - actuator must be hydraulic or electric type - injection chamber provided with Spraysat 5

Sizing Models provided either with internal or external cage silencer may be sized with good accuracy by IEC equations and by selecting DN and port according to the flow coefficient table. Models provided with downstream Limiphon stack must be instead sized by Parcol proprietary criteria, also because in this case silencers are defined according to specific application requirements. Also for noise pressure level prediction of 1-5900 series valve, Parcol follows general principles of 60534-8-3 IEC standard, but uses a proven proprietary method which takes into account the special configuration of valve+desuperheater assembly. For instance the acoustic benefit produced by downstream injected water is taken into account by a correction factor which is a function both of injector type and the ratio w between water and steam flow rate. The acoustic benefit is maximum where injection is performed by LVM multiple nozzles; it can be calculated by the equation: L w = 38. w 1,5. 7
