Question.. I have steam escaping
(OP)
Question..
I have steam escaping from a reactor at pressure, to a vent line.
I feel like this is a dumb question, but can I assume the initial pressure going into the vent line will be the same as the reactor?

Practically, maybe. Tell us more.
Good luck,

This inlet pressure can be assumed to be the reacto pressure, but if the system operates above about 30psig then the flow is choked (sonic limit). The actual flow can be calculated using the method for choked flow in Crane TP410.
