Steam and hydronic piping grows considerably when going from ambient to operating temperature. If not properly resolved, this expansion can cause over-stressed pipe joints, failed pipe hangers and problems with rotating equipment. This course covers estimation of pipe growth and methods to handle it in the design phase. Topics include use of natural pipe flexibility,…

Improper piping of steam equipment, and failure to properly consider steam’s thermodynamic properties and the effects of the bi-phase steam system often results in early equipment failure and wasted energy. This course highlights some important details and principals behind those details as a way to avoid those issues. Part 1 of the course discusses steam…

The purpose of this session is to understand the thermodynamic properties of steam, which affect the design and operation of steam heating systems and process steam systems. An understanding of the basic thermodynamics of steam allows us to properly size equipment and to design piping systems. It also allows us to make informed decisions affecting…
