Betty:

People are probably having trouble understanding what you mean or describe.

Are you atomizing the steam? What for? Steam is not normally "atomized". However, it IS USED to atomize other fluids - such as in a fuel oil burner. However your thread title "Automization of Steam" means that you intend to atomize the steam.

Are you using the English language correctly? That may be the problem in getting members to respond. Proper communication is essential for an accurate response to a query.

Dear,

Yes it's poor English.. I've to use correct English language to get good communication & feedback..

This what I meant "it IS USED to atomize other fluids - such as in a fuel oil burner."

How could steam atomize other fluids such as in a fuel oil burner?

Regards

Betty,


The primary purpose of the Atomizing Media is to shear the higher viscosity liquid into fine droplets that can then be thoroughly burned in a short duration. In simple language, it is the role of the Atomizing Media to alter the liquid fuel’s characteristics so that they approximate that of a gaseous fuel. The two most common Atomizing Media are compressed air and steam. If applied properly, either can be used just as effectively. Steam, if available, is generally preferred because it is usually already at a high pressure and the operating cost to differentially produce this steam is lower than that to compress air.


For pictorial representation of steam atomized burner refer the link below (Clicking back on the link also provides a brief description of steam and air atomized burners in the prveious page of the link).

Hope this helps.
