Abstract
The present invention provides for a system and method for determining saturated steam quality. The system includes a liquid inlet in communication with a pre-boiler stream of liquid creating a liquid inlet flow. An inlet chamber is in communication with the liquid inlet flow and has a inlet temperature compensated conductivity probe that is submerged in the liquid inlet flow and configured to measure the conductivity of the inlet liquid. A liquid outlet is in communication with a post-boiler outlet flow creating an outlet liquid flow. An outlet chamber is in communication with the outlet liquid flow. The outlet chamber has an outlet temperature compensated conductivity probe that is submerged in the outlet liquid flow and configured to measure the conductivity of the outlet liquid. A processor is in communication with the inlet and outlet temperature compensated conductivity probes and configured to calculate steam quality. The processor is further in communication with boiler control system wherein boiler control system is configured to adjust boiler firing rate and/or liquid flow rate based on the calculated steam quality. The method includes steps to measure the conductivity of the liquid inlet flow and outlet liquid flow and to calculate the saturated steam quality.
