STEAM FLOW AT 12.5 or xxxxx BAR(g) ADJUSTED for PRESSURE for REQUIRED PIPE SIZE

Alternatively the pipe size can be calculated arithmetically. The following information is required, and the procedure used for the calculation is outlined below.
ADJUSTED FOR PRESSUE

vg = 0.146 15 bar
Information required to calculate the required pipe size: vg = 0.17 12.5 bar
0.194 10
u = Flow velocity (m/s) vg = 0.24 8 bar pi = 3.14

vg = Specific volume (m³/kg) vg = 0.27 7 bar

Ms = Mass flowrate (kg/s) Ms = 0.056398 kg/SECond u = 13.92 X pi = 43.708395

Ѷ = Volumetric flowrate (m³/s) = ms x vg
From this information, the cross sectional area (A) of the pipe can be calculated: Ѷ = 0.00958764792899 X 4 = 0.0383506
Rearranging the formula to give the diameter of the pipe (D) in metres: Ms X vg

= 0.03835059171598 SQRT of
= 0.00088 = 0.0296212652 metre

= 43.7083949704142 = 30 mm = SAY 500 mm Steam pipe Header to USE
