ASME EA-3:2009(R2019)

Anotácia textu normy ASME EA-3:2009(R2019) :

 This Standard covers steam systems that are defined as a system containing steam generator(s) or other steam source(s), a steam distribution network and end-use equipment. Cogeneration and power generation components may also be elements of the system (gas turbines, backpressure steam turbines, condensing steam turbines). If steam condensate is collected and returned, the condensate return subsystem is a part of the steam system.
This Standard sets the requirements for conducting and reporting the results of a steam system energy assessment (hereafter referenced as an assessment) that considers the entire system, from energy inputs to the work performed as the result of these inputs. An assessment meeting this standard need not address each individual system component or specific system within an industrial facility with equal weight; however, it shall be sufficiently comprehensive to identify the major opportunities for improving the overall energy performance of the steam system. This Standard is designed to be applied primarily at industrial facilities, but most of the specified procedures can be used in other facilities such as those in the institutional and commercial sectors. Use of this Standard and accompanying Guidance Document should increase the quantity and quality of energy assessments performed, with significant potential savings in implemented energy costs.  Intended for energy managers, facility managers, plant engineers, maintenance managers, plant managers, environmental health and safety managers, plus others across a broad range of industries.
