How much steam will produce if 1 kg of water used at 170 degree temperature?

The answer will depend on the units for the temperature.


How hot can steam get?

The temperature of steam depends on the pressure of the system. Higher pressure steam can get super hot. Steam at atm is around 212 degree F, like boiling water.


What is the temperature of water in a steam shower unit?

Different individuals usually shower at different water temperatures. A steam shower unit does not have one water temperature. The temperature of the water in a steam shower unit varies, as the temperature may be controlled by a number of factors. Some of the steam shower units come equipped with a temperature gauge, so the individual may set the temperature to a specific degree.


What happens when steam hits a cold surface?

It really depends on the temperature of the steam and temperature of the cold surface. 250 degree steam hitting a 50 or 60 degree surface will just turn back into water and droplets can be seen almost immediately. 1000+ degree steam hitting a frozen surface may cause a loud bang and eventually turn back into water.

What is the difference between dry steam and wet steam to clean?

DRY steam is superheated There is a temperature below which steam will start to condense into water droplets. This is called the saturation temperature, and it varies with the pressure of the steam. Steam that is exactly at its saturation temperature is called saturated steam. Steam that is below its saturation temperature contains droplets of moisture and is called wet steam. Steam that is above its saturation temperature is called superheated steam.


What will be change in specific heat of superheated steam with the increase of degree of superheat?

This can only be answered accurately using steam tables. However, in general practice, for every 0.47 btu of heat added to 1 lb. of dry steam at atmospheric pressure, the temperature will rise 1 degree fahrenheit.


What temperature should a steam room be?

Between 45 and 50 Degree Celsius, depending on your body and the ability for it to handle the steam. Breathing becomes harder and heart rate goes up!


Why do we get a more severe burn from steam at 100 Degree Celsius than from an equal amount Of water at the same temperature?

In order to turn from water to steam, the liquid must absorb a large amount of energy. Even though they may be the same temperature, this extra energy means the steam can cause a more severe burn.


Why would Steam at 100 degree celsius burn worse than that of liquid water AT the same temperature?

As the steam comes in contact with the skin, it becomes water, and releases more energy (about 2188 joules per gram) on contact than water at the same temperature.


Why not you use steam tracing in sulfur lines instead of steam jacket?

sulfur melting point is minimum 116 degree centigrade, so if you are using LP tracing it is not maintain that uniform temperature and line get solidify, otherwise if you are using MP tracing the temperature is more ,ie > 150 degree centigrade. so > 150 degree centigrade the sulfur viscosity will increase. so LP jacketting is best for sulfur line
