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.

Device for performing a method of improving the permissble load-varying speed of a once-through steam generator comprising a heating surface of a superheater, a water separating vessel connected between and to a heating surface of the once-through steam generator and said heating surface of said superheater, valve means connected in a steam delivery line forming the connection betweem said water separating vessel and said heating surface of said superheater, said valve means being openable during start-up and shut-down of the once-through steam generator, a plurality of water-steam separator vessels having respective inlets at the steam side thereof connnected to the heating surface of the once-through steam generator and having respective outlets at the water side thereof and a manifold to which the respective outlets of said water-steam separator vessels are connected, said manifold being connected to the water separating vessel.
In a device for performing a method of improving the permissible load-varying speed of a once-through steam generator a heating surface of a superheater, a water separating vessel connected between and to a heating surface of the once-through steam generator and said heating surface of said superheater valve means connected in a steam delivery line forming the connection between said water separating vessel and said heating surface of said superheater, said valve means being openable during start-up and shut-down of the once-through steam generator, said valve means comprising a steam side valve connected in parallel with a control valve in said steam delivery line, and including a temperature regulating device connected to said control valve for regulating said control valve.
