Abstract:
A method for assuring the equal phase distribution and steam quality of a two phase mixed steam flow having a gaseous phase and a liquid phase, in a steam flow line having a junction inlet and two junction outlets, and for distributing said two phase mixed steam flow in a preselected distribution ratio between said two junction outlets, comprising the steps of:providing a steam flow diverting means movably arranged at said junction inlet and activating said diverting means to alternately divert all of said two phase mixed steam flow to a selected one of said two junction outlets; andcontrolling the movement of said steam flow diverting means to deliver said two phase mixed steam flow in said flow line in a timed manner alternately to each of said two junction outlets to achieve said preselected distribution ratio of said two phase mixed steam flow between said two junction outlets.
