I remember about pressure drop on steam traps. I don't have isometric drawing.

I expect by-passes on traps so I specifed condensate pipes for 180C.

Static head 0,5 bar, friction loss 0,4 bar all togheter about 1 bar loss So for 1 barg I have temperature 120C.

Hi I am designing a condensate pipeline. I have a problem how to determine condensate temperature. The condensate pipeline is about 110 m long. Dividied in to two section in a building and outside. The pressure before steam traps is 6 bar. Behind the steam traps I lift the pipeline by 5 m. Then...

Thx, I must overlooked this chapter.

Hi I am designing return line which collects condensate from couple of steam traps. Steam pressure upstream control valves is 12 barg, control valves reduces steam pressure to 6 barg. The problem is that I need to lift my common line over a door. Usually I lift condensate from a single steam...

Some additional explanation. I did calculations and I have following results. expansion axial forces transverse forces moments Than I calculated stress by von Mises formula and now I want to compare it to FEA. I tried Autodesk Fusion 360 but I have problem how to put forces. One bend end is...

Hi I want to check stress in carbon steel elbow (this is preinsulated underground hot water pipeline). I know all forces (axial, transverse, moment) but don't know where to put them. Should the elbow at one end should be constrained and on the other one I should put loads? Thanks in advance.

Steam line has no vacuum rating. I think i will leave open end of air vent to the atmosphere. Thank you for your help.

Hi At the end of steam mains which works periodic (8 hrs per day) thermostatic air vent is installed. I wonder if there should be fitted check valve after thermostatic air vent to prevent air to come back when steam line is cold. What do you think?

Thank you for your help.

Hi I just wonder if it is necessary to design drip leg for water residues before air preparation block (filter/regulator w manual drain + lubricator). Compressor is equipped with a refigerant air dryer. All piplines are in heated rooms. Chris

Hi I’m designing steampipeline for thermal processing of meat. Steam at 0.5 g will be used in steam chambers for direct moisturizing. My question is what kind of materials I should use for pipes and fittings. I am thinking about 304L and tri-clamp connections. Is it a good choice? Chris

Hi I need to calculate heat demand for biomass drying. I know its weight and properties. For this purpose I would like to use some kind of outside floor heting. Any ideas? Thanks Chris

Hi Where I can find on the internet information about designing medical gases systems, or maybe anyone could recommend a book? Chris

There is a sensor in a hot water pipe, and the steam trap I think is termostatic. Regards Chris

Hi I have a question. At a production plant I noticed hot water system heated by 6 bar g steam. Downstream of a heatexchanger was a temperature controlling valve and parallel to that valve was installed a steam trap. Could anyone explain me if it makes any sense bypassing controliing valve with...

Hi everyone I need to lift condensate from a steam trap to a higher level (it is only 2 metres to discharge well and then drain to waste). Minimal pressure in steam main is 6 bar gauge. I know that 1 metre litft in pipework = 1 m head static pressure = 0.1 bar backpressure. Am I right that it...
