Water Slug formation in condensor coil
Water Slug formation in condensor coil
(OP)
Hi,
If steam is travelling at a very high speed (800 ft/s, transient) through a condensor coil and assuming there is no pre-existing condensate in the line, can water slugs be formed as a result of condensation of steam as it travels though the condensor coil ?
I am concerned about water hammer formation as the valve is opened and high speed steam travels through the coil ?
Thanks

Not enough information to guess at the answer.

The steam flows in the main line thrn reaches condensor coil, where it will be cooled. Could the this condensation of steam at high velocity in the coil result in water slug formation and then water hammer ?

is it HVAC application?

If it doesn't work and hurts somebody, you're the person responsible.
