The theory, design parameters and recommendations ‘iscussed here, enables the design engineer to calculate the size of the equipment and to estimate its performance Under several operating conditions. An illustrative ‘example 6 alio presented ‘Since 1953, when the 26 MW plant of Wairakei New Zealand was designed, the steam-water separator has evolved due to modifications (Smith and Hoc, 1958 and Bangma, 1961) that have been integrated as result of operation experience and the need for improving the dryness of the separated steam to protect steam lines. equipment, turbine, ete ‘The experience acquired in many liguid-dominated geothermal fields (New Zealand, Mexico. El Salvador) thas demonstrated that the Webre-type cyclone separator INTRODUCTION ‘The steam-water separator (inlet mixture quality < 95 percent) and the steam dryer (inlet mixture quality > 95 percent) are equipment of major importance during the development, exploitation and electric generation of “liquid dominated” geothermal field, Generally speak ing, a well delivers at the wellhead a water-stearn mixture which normally falls in the [5 to 35 percent dryness fraction range which is separated in a separator The saturated steam obtained at each well i piped to the main steam line which reaches a dryer where the moisture of the steam is removed in order to avoid scaling and cor- rosion at the turbine. The water can be rejected oF flashed to provide vapor. which upon expansion yields addi- tional power. This may be done several times ateach well or ina flash plant: but sn any case, there will be several steam-water Separators and two or three steam dryers, ‘The dryer also removes the condensate formed along the steamm-line length and acts as a safety element for the turbine in the case of failure of the system sepacator-ball float valve eorhexmal Resouces Cound BULLETIN Seprember 84 is the best for geotliermal applications (Smith und Hoe. 1958 and Bangma, 1961). For removing tvisture, several pes of diyers (horizontal, chevron-type, ete.) are operating at different geothermal power plants. Unit 5 of Cerro Prieto {has 3 Webre-type steam dryers. The operating results have been so good that they allow for the next dryers (Cerro Prieta I. IIL 4 x 110 MW) to accept the same design Figure | shows a schematic diagram of triple-flash plant where the rale of the separation equipment can be appreciated DESIGN When selecting a separator or a dryer, there are several design parameters that should be taken into account. They are, among others: ‘© Steam quality of the separated steam Steam pressure drop ‘© Facility of operation and cleaning © Space requirements (dryers) # Cost 4 Figure 1 ‘This paper deals only with Webre-type separators and dryers because: ‘© hey are extremely simple (no moving parts that ‘can be corroded or eroded). Inthe Webre evelone, the steam first moves to the top and then changes direction through 180° to go down and out the bottom outlet, Since both the steam and the water outlets are at the bottom of the cyclone, piping layouts are very simple © Their simplicity of operation has been proved in ‘many liquid-dominated geothermal ties. © This type of separator and dryer is very easy to clean. This isa fundamental item because the Beo- thermal brine contains silica, among other chemi- cals, whieh is mainly responsible for scaling. Its recommended to schedule at least one general maintenance per year for well-hesd separators © The outlet steams quality and the efficiency are very high. The reported outlet steam quality (dry- ness) has an average of 99.95 pervent (McDowell 1976) at Wairakei field, New Zealand: and higher than 99 99 percent at Cerro Prieto, Mexico The performance of eyelones is governed by two types of variables, 4) Operating variables, relating to propert > FIGURE 1.

Generally speaking, the pressure (and temperature) of the separator is, fixed by the inlet pressure of the turbine: there- fore, the farther the well is from it, the greater the separation pressure. The mixture can be con- sidered inside the separator at equilibrium, then all properties (pressure, temperature, density, viscosity, ets.) are fixed. Each well hasa different pressure-flow curve; consequently, each well has different flow of mixture (for the same operating pressure) with a different inlet steam-water mass ratio. Desiga variables, relating to type and dimensions of eyelones, In @ geothermal field, one can find wells with great production of mixture having 3 very high steam-water mass ratio and small pro duction with low steam water mass ratio; there fore the designer should stand up to the problem of standardizing the size of the well head separa or or desizning two or three different sizes From the design, performance and cost points of view, we recommend to have two or three sizes, assuming that the maintenance cost is kept low The outlet steam quality and the pressure drop are the main criteria for designing separatorsand dryers, and there are very few papersin the itera~ ture concerning their design, Since 1961, the base for designing geothermal separators has been the method given by Bangma (1961); however, this method is an empirical one which has no way 10 predict the outlet steam quality that will produce 4 particular separator under different conditions Pollak and Work (1942) suggest an equation for the prediction of liguid entrainment in Webre ype separators, but ithis been of ite utility due to the lack of reliability. team be said that theres ‘no method that can be used fordesigning separa- sion equipment which is also capable af predict ing its behavior under several operating conditions, Geter Resouces Council BLALETIN September 154 Theory us this part of the paper we will discuss the theory of separation for steam-water suixtures in a Webre-type cyclone regardless of the application separator or dryen There ate two different tetiuy that, in spite of thls, ate very often taken indistinctly The efficiency of separation (el), defined as the mass ratio of separated liquid to inlet liquid. ‘© The outlet steam quality (yg), defined as the mass ratio of outlet steam to outlet steam-water.

When Doth steaun velocities increase, the outlet steam quality oes up to a point (breakdown point) where the outlet steam quality breaks down drastically.

I as well known thut the etfeteney of a eyclone 1s reduced when the drop diameter decreases: therefore, cne should understand the causes and seasons for an crease or a reduction of the drop diameter. We believe thatthe drop size inside the eyelone is governed by the drop dia- meter in the pipe upstream of the eyclone. The latter is determined by the balance between the inertia and the surface forces. as well as by the equilibrium between drops leaving and atviving at the wall, the pressure drop. and the type of two-phase How pattern, pipe line con figuration, etc. Among the numerous correlations con- sulted (Delale, 1980; Hinze, 1985; Azzopardh and others. 1980; Nukiyami and Tanasawa, 1938), we tested several of them obtaining unfavorable results. The Nukiysama- Fanasawa equation (Nukiyar and Lanasawa, 1958) ives the trend of results—probably due to the faet that the mechanism of breakup of venturi throats are similar to the mechanism of breakup of a vapor-liquid-system in a pipe. Taking this equation as the basic relation for drop-size evaluation, we proceed to modily it by adding different terms in the following way: Taking from the data bank, obtained from actual well-head Separators, the data with 100 percent or 99.99 percent outlet steam quality (A= 1) and the equations (3) 10 (20) knowing everything except uy we got equation (21). aE «bel (8s ay Where: ys vy 2 woe 66.2808 as97. 49 o.zesu 0.5507 ory ‘The variables a.¢, B are dependent on the type of two-phase flow patiern according to Baker’ method (Lawrence, 1952) and ace given in Table 2.

The only limitation is that the area between the end of this pipe (ip) and the wall ofthe top head should be at least equal to the cross-aren to this pipe. We recommend 1.25 tines the cross-area, This is a common practice in Mexico (developed by the stall of Cerra Prieta) which has given exceptional results because the residence ume is increased and the possibilty of water going directly othe steam outlet pipe (short circuit) isdiminished. Aside from this. the chances of water running upward along the steam-outlet pipe and contaminating the steam atthe rim are reduced. The diameter af this pipe (De) should be ‘equal to the inlet mixture pipe diameter (Dy) ‘The outlet water pipe diameter (Dib) should beequal the inlet misture pipe diameter (Dy) The sepuirator should consider @ water drum which can be either integrated or not. This drum acts as a volume to give smooth operation and asa water seal to avoid steam losses.
