Flash Steam Calculator: Saturated condensateand Sub-Cooled Condensate

From Spirax Sarco, Inc.
 

 
Find the amount of flash steam formed from condensate in downstream pipework due to the pressure drop across a throttling device like a steam trap. The calculator can also be used to size a flash vessel based on the same parameters.
Products & Services
Heat exchangers are commonly used in a wide variety of industrial, chemical, and electronics processes to transfer energy and provide required heating or cooling. Search by Specification | Learn more about Heat Exchangers
Steam traps are automatic valves that release condensate from a steam space while preventing the loss of live steam. They also remove air and noncondensables from the steam space. Search by Specification | Learn more about Steam Traps
