Equation for satured steam curve

Equation for satured steam curve

(OP)
Dear all,

If have this equation for saturated steam temperature as function of the steam pressure.

Tsat = 100*P^0.25

T [Celcius]
P [bar]

Results are reasonable but I need more accuracy.
Does anybody have a more accurate equation for me?

Thanks for helping!

RE: Equation for satured steam curve

Sorry, I don't have an equation but I've used the referenced above add-in and have been happy with it.  If you need a standalone equation, I'd develop a correlation in Excel.

I haven't used the correlation you shown but based on it's pretty basic coefficients, you should be able to get a better match pretty easy.

I've put together a simple Excel spreadsheet based on tables in ENCYCLOPEDIA OF CHEMICAL PROCESSING & DESIGN written by JOHN McKETTA of University of Texas. The results look pretty good to me. If you want, post your email address.
