Steam Velocity through Piping
Steam Velocity through Piping formula |
||
| \(\large{ v_s = \frac{ Q_s \; \upsilon }{ 3600 \; \pi \; { \left( \frac {d}{24} \right) ^2 } } }\) | ||
| Symbol | English | Metric |
| \(\large{ v_s }\) = steam velocity | \(\large{\frac{ft}{sec}}\) | \(\large{\frac{m}{s}}\) |
| \(\large{ \pi }\) = Pi | \(\large{3.141 592 653 ...}\) | |
| \(\large{ d }\) = pipe inside diameter | \(\large{ in }\) | \(\large{ mm }\) |
| \(\large{ \upsilon }\) (Greek symbol upsilon) = specific volume of steam | \(\large{\frac{ft^3}{lbm}}\) | \(\large{\frac{m^3}{kg}}\) |
| \(\large{ Q_s }\) = steam flow rate | \(\large{\frac{ft^3}{sec}}\) | \(\large{\frac{m^3}{s}}\) |
