What is the temperature at which medium-pressure steam leaks?
Thread Content
My unit generates medium-pressure steam at a pressure of 3.6 MPA and a temperature of 240 degrees. Part of this medium-pressure steam is used to heat gases, via a heat exchanger. If medium-pressure steam leaks, is the temperature of the leaking steam also 240 degrees? Thank you, looking forward to your sharing
I don’t understand how it was leaked – was it a small-scale leak or a large-scale one? It can be calculated using the reduced-pressure flash model.
If it leaks, the pressure drops; reducing pressure requires heat absorption
If it’s leaking from the inside, then it’s not leaking from the outside, right?
