    Inlet piping pressure drop for two phase flow

    I've sized a PSV for two-phase flow (water/steam) and I've found the various isentropic mass fluxes. What I need to do now is find a maximum length for the inlet pipe with a pressure drop of 3% of the set pressure. It's a heater that uses hot water to supply heat and the scenario is abnormal...
