🔍 Key Concepts

• Function of a desuperheater in a boiler system • Relationship between steam drum, superheater, and desuperheater in the steam flow path • Difference between affecting feed water flow/temperature vs affecting steam temperature

💭 Think About

• Think about where the desuperheater is physically located in relation to the steam drum and the superheater: is it usually acting on water, saturated steam, or already-superheated steam? • Which option describes changing the condition of steam in a way that matches the word “desuperheat” (i.e., removing some of its superheat)? • Eliminate any answers that mainly describe feedwater control or raising temperatures—do those match the word de-super-heat?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which component in the list of options is directly concerned with controlling steam temperature, not water temperature or flow. • Check your understanding of “saturated steam” vs “superheated steam” and ask: which one comes from the steam drum, and which one goes to/through the superheater? • Confirm that the function you choose would logically involve reducing steam temperature, not increasing it or controlling flow.
