Regarding Steam pressure 1

[gautamjngp]

What is the literal meaning of "steam pressure", If steam is flowing through a duct, and an pressure gauge is used to indicate pressure, what pressure does it indicate? Static(reflecting its temperature) or Dynamic(flow characteristics)?

 

[Latexman]

Usually, it means the static pressure of the steam.

Good luck,

By contrast velocity pressure wuld be the pressure exerted by fluid flow and you could use a pitot tube to measure it.

Depending on how the gauge is placed, you might get minor differences which may include/exclude the pressure of the flow.
