Yuba Feedwater Heater

Feedwater heaters from Godrej Americas are backed with more cumulative years of design and manufacturing experience behind them than any others. Plus, there are more Yuba brand feedwater heaters currently in active service in power plants than any others. Godrej Americas understands the unique needs of the power generation industry and provides feedwater heaters that withstand years of rigorous service.

All shell and tube heat exchangers, irrespective of the type of service for which they were designed, must withstand severe service conditions. The service life of feedwater heaters, however, is one of the toughest because of the longevity and reliability factors inherent in power plant equipment designs.

Godrej Americas’ thorough understanding of these factors enhances its ability to communicate clearly with power plant design engineers. Yuba designs enable power plant engineers to expect maximum efficiency from the turbine extraction steam in preheating the boiler feedwater.

Godrej Americas designs and manufactures both low pressure, intermediate pressure and high-pressure feedwater heaters which may be installed either vertically or horizontally, depending on the plant design/layout requirements. The physical and thermal characteristics are vastly different for these feedwater heaters. Low pressure feedwater pressure ratings range between 400 and 1,200 psig, and high-pressure feedwater heaters range from 2,000 to over 5,500 psig and intermediate pressure feedwater heaters pressure ratings range from 1,200 psig to 2,000 psig.

Each Yuba brand feedwater heater can have from one to three separate heat transfer areas or zones including the condensing, desuperheating and sub-cooling zones. Economics of design, and the specific performance needs of your plant, will determine the design features for your feedwater heaters from Godrej Americas.

Godrej Americas’ feedwater heater design engineers are always available to assist you in determining those design parameters and how they will impact performance in your power plant. Call today to experience the unique performance advantages of Godrej Americas, from engineering to manufacturing to installation to longer and more reliable service life from your feedwater heaters.
