STEAM VALVE SIZING CHART<br />

Pressure drop<br />

Example for saturated steam:<br />

Flow : 4700 kg/h saturated steam<br />

Absolute Inlet Pressure : 850 kPa<br />

Pressure Drop : 160 kPa<br />

– Locate the crossing point between the line with starting point at absolute<br />

inlet pressure 850 kPa and the sloping line of 160 kPa pressure drop.<br />

– Locate the crossing point between the line with starting point at above<br />

crossing point and the line of 4700 kg/h flow.<br />

This point corresponds to flow coefficient Kvs 63, DN 65, therefore control<br />

valve must have size 65mm.<br />

VALVE SIZING INFORMATION<br />

Critical pressure drop<br />

55<br />

Example for superheated steam:<br />

Flow : 140 kg/h superheated steam<br />

Absolute Inlet Pressure : 350 kPa<br />

Temperature : 209°C<br />

Pressure Drop : 100 kPa<br />

Calculate the superheating degree as follows:<br />

– Read the temperature value corresponding to 350 kPa (139°C)<br />

Superheating degree – 209 –139 = 70°C<br />

– Locate the crossing point (right side of diagram) between the line with<br />

starting point at superheating 70°C and the sloping line of 140 kg/h flow.<br />

– Locate the crossing point between the line with starting point at 350 kPa<br />

inlet pressure and the sloping line at 100 kPa pressure drop.<br />

– Locate the crossing point between lines with starting points.<br />

This point corresponds to flow coefficient Kvs 4.
