Aerogel Blanket for 1&2 Reheat Main Steam Elbow Upgrade Thermal Insulation

Client replaced aluminum silicate with AG-F650 aerogel blanket for reheat main steam elbow insulation. Under harsh 568℃ steam, 3.89Mpa pressure and 350t/h flow, AG-F650 excelled: it cut insulation thickness from 275mm to 95mm (saving materials/space), lowered post-insulation surface temp from 60℃ to 49℃ (meeting technical specs), reduced heat loss sharply and delivered notable energy savings, proving its superiority in high-temperature power equipment insulation. Operating under harsh conditions (steam temperature: 568℃, pressure: 3.89Mpa, flow rate: 350t/h), the new aerogel solution showed remarkable advantages. Compared with the original 275mm-thick aluminum silicate, the aerogel insulation only required 95mm thickness (a reduction of 180mm). During full-load unit operation, the surface temperature after insulation dropped from 60℃ to 49℃, fully meeting strict technical requirements.
