    The document discusses the SA-35 steam atomizing desuperheater, including its design, operation, and applications.

    The SA-35 steam atomizing desuperheater was developed to obtain a more uniform spray pattern under varying load conditions without pressure drop in the steam header.

    The SA-35 desuperheater introduces cooling liquid through small nozzles that are blasted by higher pressure steam jets, creating a fine mist that is quickly evaporated to control downstream temperatures.

    nozzle assembly, which uniquely divides one large jet of liquid into many small
    jets. Just prior to entrance into the main header, each jet is bombarded by a
    higher pressure steam jet, creating a fine mist which enters the stream flow
    without the need of a thermal liner inside the main header.

    atomization at low flows to offset the decreasing benefit obtained from the
    mixing and transporting capacity of the steam in the header at a reduced rate
    of flow.
