Specifying steam demand
Specifying steam demand
(OP)
Dear Folks,
I have a general question on how steam demand should be specified.
In some documents I read, the steam demand is mentioned in xxx kg/h.
Should the pressure of the steam be mentioned as well?
Is it a standard engineering practice?
Is not it somehow mis-leading the reader?
If yes, then how can i specify the steam pressure from this?
Demands in kg/h will vary by changing the pressure of steam.
Thanks in advace for your comment on the issue.

RE: Specifying steam demand
Moreover steam temperature is directly related to its pressure, and it is necessary to account for that when the process requires that specific temperatures are reached.
