throughout the appear to similar to in that fluid wells which has to separated at the surface in order for alone to be transmitted to turbines to generate electric power. efficient and only about of carryover bore water the steam pipelines. contains minerals, has to be carefully removed by a series of extraction pots along the lines, which in turn, create a potential problem of steam condensate corrosion. This has taken place in of the so-called High lines at Wairakei which operate at 125 both extraction pot design and corrosion control have been described and proposed, James (1975, 1979). therefore, we may cautiourly state that the design of steam 'mission line8 presents no major difficulties. of the separated hot water a seemingly int ractable problem. Cyclone separators used for this However, even this quantity of water which A t present, But the transmission |
