Why hammering is happening in steam line?
condensate in the steam piping, probably due to improper slope of piping to allow condensate flow out.
What happens with underfloor heating if water gets on the floor?
Underfloor heating is used to help with controlling the temperature in the house with the convection heating method. If water get on the floor, the water will condensate into steam.
How do you convert steam usage in tonnes to Kwh of gas consumed?
You have to consult tables which give the properties of water and steam (commonly called Steam Tables). You have to calculate the total enthalpy of the steam as delivered, and subtract the enthalpy of the returned condensate (if returned) or of the water as it enters the boiler. In modern steam tables this will be in kilojoules per kilogram. You can multiply by mass to get total energy. To convert to kilowatt-hours, note that 1 kWh = 3.6 MJ. Various organizations have published steam tables in the past. The one published by the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam is the one to use, particularly the 1997 formulation for industrial application. There are some free caclulators online which claim compliance to the algorithms, but I can't vouch for any of them. It is not straightforward and you may want the services of a competent steam engineer (that leaves me out. I may be able to hack my way through, but I am not "qualified" in this area.)
Why you use the steam trap to separate any liquid content?
Steam traps help out in a couple of ways: Where steam is being passed through a turbine, entrained liquid droplets could cause problems when the impact the blades of the turbine. Where steam is being used to heat something, the liquid has already lost the heat of vaporization, so it is not worth transporting for heating purposes.
How to calculate condensed water from 1 kg of steam?
one kilogram staem condensed what is weight
How do you calculate 25 bar steam condenstate pressure?
If the steam pressure is 25 bars the condensate pressure is at most 25 bars. Typically it is slightly less due to friction of the fluid passing through the steam traps. As the condensate approaches the condensate tank, where it is normally vented to atmosphere, the pressure decreases in the system to near atmospheric.
Why condensate pot is used?
whenever steam is utilised as heating media, steam condensate is produced.This steam condensatecan be utilsed for steam generation at some other location and needs to be pumped, for pumping you need some intermediate storage of this condensate. For storing it we use condensate pot whose level can be controlled.
What is hammering in steam header's how can you avoid it?
condensate,bleed line of all condensate
How does condensate return to a boiler?
Condensate is what you get when you condense steam (water) that was heated in a boiler to make the steam. I'm not sure what else you are looking for.

What is the specific gravity of steam condensate?
1.000 at 60F.
What is a steam trap?
A device that will allow cooler condensate to pass and hold back the higher temperature steam
How do you convert pounds of steam to gallons of condensate?
One pound of steam condenses back to one pound of liquid water. Since one gallon of water weighs 8.337 pounds, simply divide the weight of the condensate by 8.337 to find out how many gallons of condensate you have.
How to calculate condensate yield?
Condensate production divided by (hydrocarbon) gas production. Conventional units stb/MMscf.
How does a impulse steam trap work?
It works on the principle that condensate at a given temperature will flash to steam after pressure has been significantly reduced.
