2. A superheater is a device used to convert
saturated steam or wet steam into
superheated steam or dry steam. It is a
vital part of the a boiler system that is
used to increase the overall efficiency
of a thermal power plant. More
specifically, it is a device which
converts wet steam (saturated steam) into
dry steam as dry steam contains more
thermal energy. Dry steam is also less
likely to condense within the engine
cylinders or the casing of a steam
turbine.
There are three types of Super Heaters:
radiant superheaters, convection
superheaters and separately fired
superheaters. Depending on the size of
the plant, they can vary from a few
meters long to a few hundred meters.

3. The superheater component consists of :-
1. Combustion Chamber:- It is the space used for the fuel combustion process to heat
steam. A Combustion Chamber is the area within the Cylinder where the fuel/air mix is
ignited. As the Piston compresses the fuel/air mix and makes contact with the Spark
Plug, the mixture is combusted and pushed out of the Combustion Chamber in the form of
energy.
2. Burner:- It is a tool used to burn fuel in the combustion chamber. So, the temperature
of the combustion chamber increases. The heat from the combustion burner is used to
heat the steam that is flowed into the combustion chamber.
3. Steam Coils:- Steam coils are a common heat source in an air handler to provide
heating for many commercial and industrial buildings.
4. Measurement Instrument:- A measuring instrument is a device to measure a physical
quantity. It is a tool to find out process parameters such as temperature and pressure
of combustion, the temperature of steam in and out whether it is desired or not.
Since steam can only be superheated when there is no water left around to evaporate, any
superheated steam boiler takes steam at the boiler outlet to superheat.

4. An economizer is a mechanical device which is
used as a heat exchanger by preheating a fluid
to reduce energy consumption. The electrostatic
precipitator is a piece of equipment that
is used to capture dust particles that are
formed or liberated by various industrial
processes.
Economizers are commonly used in data centers to
reduce the reliance on cooling devices, such as
chillers, compressors or computer room air
conditioners. Economizers can help lower a data
center's energy consumption and the associated
costs, while moving toward a greener computing
environment. Economizers can also extend the
life of cooling devices, leading to additional
savings.

5. An electrostatic precipitator (ESP) removes
particles from a gas stream by using electrical
energy to charge particles either positively or
negatively. It (ESP) is a piece of equipment that is
used to capture dust particles that are formed or
liberated by various industrial processes.
Basic Principle of ESP :-
Corona discharge
Electrostatic attraction
Dust particle collection, and
Removal of these collected dust particles.
