Best Answer

One pound of steam condenses back to one pound of liquid water. Since one gallon of water weighs 8.337 pounds, simply divide the weight of the condensate by 8.337 to find out how many gallons of condensate you have.

Why condensate pot is used?

whenever steam is utilised as heating media, steam condensate is produced.This steam condensatecan be utilsed for steam generation at some other location and needs to be pumped, for pumping you need some intermediate storage of this condensate. For storing it we use condensate pot whose level can be controlled.


What is hammering in steam header's how can you avoid it?

condensate,bleed line of all condensate


How does condensate return to a boiler?

Condensate is what you get when you condense steam (water) that was heated in a boiler to make the steam. I'm not sure what else you are looking for.


Why hammering is happening in steam line?

condensate in the steam piping, probably due to improper slope of piping to allow condensate flow out.

What is a steam trap?

A device that will allow cooler condensate to pass and hold back the higher temperature steam


How do you calculate 25 bar steam condenstate pressure?

If the steam pressure is 25 bars the condensate pressure is at most 25 bars. Typically it is slightly less due to friction of the fluid passing through the steam traps. As the condensate approaches the condensate tank, where it is normally vented to atmosphere, the pressure decreases in the system to near atmospheric.


1000 lbs steam how many gallon water?

The number of pounds in a gallon of water changes with temperature. At 100 degrees Celsius, there is about 8 lbs. per gallon of water. So with one thousand lbs. of steam, we would have around 125 gallons of water.


How does a impulse steam trap work?

It works on the principle that condensate at a given temperature will flash to steam after pressure has been significantly reduced.


Why do pipes rattle when heat is turned on?

When the steam hits colder piping it turns to condensate and the steam hitting the water (condensate) produces hydraulic shock waves.
