Unlock more efficient steam piping with proven, field-tested guidance.
This book analyzes how steam moves through pipes and shows you how to choose pipe sizes that save both installation costs and operating expenses. It combines theory with practical curves and examples to help engineers design economical systems for any condition.
It covers the two key energy losses in piping—radiation and pressure drop—plus how to read and apply steam-velocity curves and pressure-dip curves. The author also explores special low‑pressure conditions, exhaust-steam opportunities, and the idea that thoughtful piping design can dramatically cut waste in industrial plants. The material is presented in a clear, step-by-step way suitable for engineers working on heating, power, or manufacturing systems.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the often-overlooked science of steam piping in industrial plants. Written from a practical perspective, it highlights the inefficiencies and waste that can result from a poorly designed steam piping system. Using a series of carefully developed curves and detailed calculations, the author provides a clear guide to determining the optimal pipe size for specific conditions. The book delves into the complexities of steam flow, discussing the two primary energy losses: radiation and pressure drop. The author emphasizes that while pressure drop is a change in energy rather than a total loss, radiation can have a more significant impact on efficiency. The book also explores the value of exhaust steam for heating purposes, showcasing the potential for significant cost savings over other power generation methods. The author argues that by utilizing exhaust heat for industrial processes, steam engines offer greater thermal efficiency than turbines and internal combustion engines, which are often seen as their replacements. This book provides a comprehensive framework for optimizing steam piping systems, offering valuable insights for engineers and managers seeking to increase efficiency and reduce operational costs.
