Hi guys
I want to calculate dew point of H2SO4 in the duct of boiler but I have just amount of So2, Co, Co2, O2.
Is it possible to calculate dew point?
Thank you

RE: end cold corrosion

The funny thing is you miss the most important component, the water vapour. If you add that, you could calculate the dew point temperature. There are a number of methods, including some dew point calculators on the internet. Depending how accurate you need be, use the internet for formulas or on-line calculator, based on the flue gas composition and some adjustments for pressure.

Thank you gr2vessels
That's right. so, I Don't need amount of So3???
I found a diagram for dew point of H2SO4, but this needs amount of H2O and So3.
Thank you again

Thank you
I read this article exactly. In the first page, there is a diagram need amount of SO3 and H2o, but it is impossible to measured amount of So3 for me. Is there any way for calculate dew point of H2SO4?
Regards

RE: end cold corrosion

Quoting from the article: "It is widely agreed that 1 to 5 % of S02 converts to S03".

The amount of SO2 should be derived directly from the quantity/Sulfur content of the fuel burnt. The same applies for H2O. The rest is straightforward.

And no matter what you do ,the operation will deviate and bite you once in a while.

I want to get the accurate amount. But it is suitable,too.
what material do you suggest to use in economizer where condensate of H2SO4 occur?

RE: end cold corrosion

Is there any NOx in this?
Then you could get mixed acids.
In high eff home furnaces that condense the exhaust deliberately they use alloys that are suitable for seawater corrosion resistance.
The superferritic grades are common.

It is good idea, but it is very costly.
is there any Commodious ideas?
Is any coat used? Do you know suitable coat?

RE: end cold corrosion

Are there any chlorides?  Any at all?
There are a number of medium alloy SS grades that have been used to line such structures.
