Diseño de un sistema para calentar agua hasta 80 ºC para el proceso de obtención de vino de la microempresa Perla Andina ubicada en Quinticusig - cantón Sigchos

Abstract

In the present technical project called, "DESIGN OF A SYSTEM TO HEAT WATER UP TO 80 °C FOR THE WINE PROCESSING OF THE PERLA ANDINA MICRO-ENTERPRISE LOCATED IN QUINTICUSIG CANTÓN - SIGCHOS", a brief description of fermentation, pasteurized and sterilized processes is made, necessary for the production of Mortiño red wine, as well as of the equipment required for these processes. It also details the types of heating systems for steam generation and its existing distribution system for future selection. For the dimensioning and selection of the water heating system or water steam with its respective distribution through a pipeline network which transports the steam from the boiler to a main distributor and from this point to different processes by independent pipelines, some equations were applied with which the required size of the boiler was determined, to determine the diameters of the pipelines and the thickness of the thermal insulation, for both, steam distribution network and the condensate return pipeline, graphics were used. The results obtained from the graphs were validated by the pipeline dimensioning software by the TLV method. For all this analysis, the mass flows required by the equipment, were considered as starting data. Therefore, an energy balance was made on the equipment to obtain the mass flow and with this, the water steam requirement for the entire process was obtained. Finally, a cost analysis is performed where the total investment cost for its implementation is observed, in the same way an analysis is carried out to determine if the project is viable and in what time the investment is recovered.
