thanks alot bill. i found some useful equations that may help me this is the thing. the come up time and the cooking time are these factors not used to calculate steam usage.
and when i get the steam flow. im not sure if the steam used during production is caluculated like fluid flow where you...
hey im an electrical engineer trying to calculate steam flow and usage for a retort.
ok i need to know the steam used in retorting canned vegatables.
i know
volume of retort
specific heat capcitiy of vegatables
pressure of steam flow into the retort is 120 psi
i know the team taken to come up...
please can some one offer some advice. i am doing an energy assesment at a food canning plant. the thing is i have to calculate the steam usage by the boilers and calculate fule consumption. im an electrical engineer.
i have a retort with steam flowing in at 120psi. how do i calculate steam used...
