What is the density of steam condensate?
Thread Content
The density of the condensate is measured using a float; the specified value is 0.88. However, the magnetic level gauge on site does not match the readings from the float. Using the density of water to calculate the float level results in accurate readings
Steam condensate is just water; it definitely matches
What is the temperature of your condensate? ~~At a water temperature of 99 degrees, the density is 0.959; a density of 0.88 might be incorrect~~
Hahahahaha, stop it – isn’t the condensation of water vapor just water? Do we even need to ask about the density of water? Believe in yourself.
I was confused just by reading the question, but luckily after seeing everyone’s answers I realized I wasn’t wrong
The density of condensate water is related to temperature; check the table.

The density of water is related to its temperature; it varies depending on the temperature. .
That’s understandable, but to be honest, floating tanks are at most three or four meters high – not that tall – so the difference between hot water and cold water isn’t that significant. Moreover, the precision of the float doesn’t need to be that high; that’s why I said that… haha, with enough experience on site, the requirements are met without the need for high precision.
