Valve for a superheated-steam conversion plant
First Claim
1. A steam valve for a superheated steam conversion station, the steam valve comprising:
- a casing formed witha port having a high-pressure side and a low-pressure side and formed therebetween with an annular valve seat,an annular draw-off chamber adjacent the valve seat and opening radially inward into the port immediately adjacent the seat on the low-pressure side, anda draw-off passage extending from the draw-off chamber and opening into the low-pressure side downstream from the draw-off chamber;
a closure member displaceable in the casing betweena fully closed position directly engaging the valve seat, blocking flow past the seat and through the port, and substantially closing the draw-off chamber,a partially closed position out of engagement with the valve seat, partially blocking the port and thereby permitting only restricted partial flow past the seat and through the port, and unblocking the draw-off chamber for restricted partial flow between the high-pressure side of the port and the draw-off chamber, anda fully open position out of engagement with the valve seat and completely unblocking the port for free flow past the seat and through the port; and
means on the casing for moving the closure member between its positions.

Abstract
The invention relates to a valve, more particularly for a superheated steam conversion station, having an inlet and an outlet which can be closed by a closure member extending into the inlet or outlet, and a draw-off via which a component flow of the steam can be drawn off in the form of booster steam from the valve chamber (2) of the valve casing in dependence on the position of the closure member; the inlet or outlet is constructed with at least one chamber connected to a booster steam drawing-off bore with which a fixed wall of the chamber is formed; and when the valve is closed the chamber, which is sealed off from the pressure side of the valve by sealing faces of the closure member, is connected to said pressure side of the valve with the first lifting of the closure member, while the inlet or outlet is not yet opened or not yet completely opened.
