Re: Mono-tube steam generators - special adaptations
How about a T with two metering jets (/orifices as Bart mentioned above) and check valves on each coil? Spool valves with such small piston face area are very prone to sticking. Constant feed pressure can be achieved with an air over liquid accumulator. Messing with steam cars, I'm getting well ver...

The big one is their ability to lift off the face in a carry over event. When running a hotwell the water is more tightly managed. For operators manua...
