Steam Leak Calculations
Steam Leak Calculations
(OP)
I am working to justify repairing steam leaks in the plant. Can anyone help me with a calculation method or table to determine the rate of steam loss through leaks to atmosphere? Would RO calculations be sufficient? I think it would be easier with a table using plume size and steam pressure. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I think estimating based on "plume" observations is impractical because of all the process, environment, and human factors involved.

If I have 13 MT /hr 90 barg Steam and I want to produce from 90 barg to 30 barg than what will be the Investment cost & Savings for installations of backpressure turbine ?
I think the chart that is given in your suggested website is useful but to convert 90 barg to 30 barg i think it requires extrapolations on the chart or if you have any ideas than pl. suggest
Thanks...

In what country are you located ?
What is your total yearly flowrate through this device and can you describe the steam distribution system ?
