At V. C. Summer if it were ever necessary to perform a manual calorimetric our procedure states that feedwater enthalpy is to be based on the enthalpy of saturated liquid from the saturated steam temperature table using feedwater temperature instrumentation.

Subject: [Pwrrm] Manual calorimetric Feedwater Enthalpy determination

 

What method do you use to assign an Enthalpy to Feedwater, given FW Temperature and S/G pressure when using your backup Manual calculation?

 

Do you use compressed liquid steam tables at a single pressure and iterate on the temperature to assign a value, or iterate on both temp and pressure.

 

If you use a single value of pressure, is it nominal full power S/G press or something different?
