Abstract

A preheating system for preheating fluid medium to be fed into the HRSG is disclosed. The system includes a feed line and a recirculation line. The feed line is adapted to feed the fluid medium to a Low Pressure Economizer (LPE) of the HRSG. The feed line is adapted to be adjoined to an inlet of the LPE, and an outlet of the LPE enables therefrom the flow of the fluid medium in further portion of the HRSG. The recirculation line is adapted to be connected between the outlet and the inlet of the LPE, in parallel to LPE to recirculate the fluid medium to the LPE. A particular method of preheating using such a system is equally disclosed.
