Seeking help regarding superheated steam pipes
Thread Content
There is an existing superheated steam pipeline, with a temperature of 320°C and a pressure of 1.1 MPa at point A. At point B, the temperature is 290°C and the pressure is 0.8 MPa. Help: 1. What factors are related to the pressure loss between points A and B? 2. Is there a difference in the steam flow velocity between points A and B of such a pipe? I need experts’ advice!
What about the pipe diameter? There isn’t enough information
If it’s the same pipe diameter and the same environmental conditions, is it then the temperature drop caused by the ambient temperature, along with the pressure drop resulting from friction?
With constant flow rate, the steam velocity is related to the pipe diameter; it is not specified whether there are elbows, valves, compensators, etc. between points A and B, so it is impossible to determine the pressure drop
The pipe diameter is fixed at DN200. I would like to ask whether the pressure drop between these two points increases as the flow rate increases? Also, in that case, would there be any difference in the steam flow rates at the two measurement points?

The distance between the two points is fairly large, around 1000 meters; there are bends in between, and a small section narrows down to DN100.
