Froude number and Steam vent/drain
Froude number and Steam vent/drain
(OP)
A heat exchanger that uses superheat steam to heat cold steam is being provided with drains. The drain shall flow by gravity and at the same time be capable of venting the steam (flash steam)as the drain flow downwards. Suggestions on how to proceed on the design is highly appreciated.

Take a look at: <http://fhs.ittind.com/Press/techtk699b.htm>, Steam Control and Condensate Drainage for Heat
Exchangers. I have some other steam-related links at <http://www.PipingDesign.com/steamtraps.html>.
