Steam calculation
Thread Content
How much steam is lost per hour due to the breakage of a 4-kilogram steam DN25 pipe? I’m looking for the calculation method; thank you very much!
Corresponding steam density, pipe diameter, approximate steam flow velocity.
I’m also seeking help with the same problem! ! ! ! ! !
The manager at the chemical plant asked me this question. I only know that the steam pressure is 4 kilograms and the pipe diameter is DN25; I don’t know anything else. How can we calculate how much steam is lost per hour?
You need to calculate the flow rate here; if you don’t know the flow velocity, see if it can be determined from the steam balance
To calculate the flow rate, it is necessary to determine the pipe length and resistance; I think it’s not easy to do that
It’s equivalent to 4 kilograms of steam being released directly into the air; those 4 kg represent the pressure loss, and the flow velocity should be able to reach 100 m/S
