What is the pressure at which high-temperature hot water enters the flash tank to generate steam? What is the maximum pressure in kilograms?
The steam pressure generated when hot water enters the flash tank depends on the temperature of the water and the design of the flash tank. Generally, if the water temperature is high, the steam pressure will also be relatively high. As for the maximum pressure, this needs to be determined based on the specifications of the flash tank and its designed pressure tolerance. In general industrial applications, the design pressure of flash tanks can range from a few kilograms to several dozen kilograms. The specific values need to be checked in the device’s detailed specifications or by consulting the manufacturer. .
The temperature of the hot water is crucial; whether steam can be generated depends on this temperature. I have seen that the pressure of steam generated when steam condensate enters the flash tank can reach up to 0.4 MPa
