How to determine the diameter and flow rate of saturated steam pipes?

Thread Content

For a DN200 pipe carrying 6 kg of saturated steam, how much steam can it handle per hour? It can be expressed as d=18.81V0.5u-0.5, where 0.5 and -0.5 are exponents. If u is taken as 30 m/s, then V = 3000 cubic meters per hour. The numbers don’t seem right. Can steam be calculated using this formula? If so, how much steam can be produced in this case? Solve

How much steam to use? It depends on the flow rate you choose It can be calculated using the formula you gave.

There are also standard tables online that show the flow rates for steam pipes at different pressures; just search for them and you’ll find the information
