Is the steam consumption calculated?
Thread Content
10 tons of room temperature water, a glass-lined tank with a capacity of 5000 L, a vapor pressure of 0.7 MPa, and a jacket pipe with a diameter of DN40. The temperature is raised from room temperature to 60 degrees, after which it is maintained at that temperature for 20 hours. How should the steam consumption during this period be calculated? I have a question. . . . .
It’s not easy to calculate; if you take heat loss into account, you need to determine the heat transfer coefficient of the insulation material.
Calculate the enthalpy required to heat and maintain the temperature of the material, then calculate the heat loss – that’s it
