The steam required for steam tracing is calculated on the basis of the amount of heat transfer that is required or the temperature that you want to maintain with the help of steam. It also depends on the pipe material through which the steam is passing,the condition of the steam that whether it is saturated or superheated etc. Overall heat transfer cofficient is calculated considering all the factors like fouling or scaling,inside and outside dia. , surface area etc. After calculating the amount of heat to be transferred, the requirement of rate of steam is calculated. Generally, Low pressure steam is used as it has got more latent/Sensible heat as compared to MP or Superheated steam.

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

What type of art supplies work best for tracing?

For tracing, you will need tracing paper and a pencil. Often times it is helpful to also have some sort of clipboard, tape, or tacky material to keep the tracing paper in place. If you're looking to do more heavy duty tracing, you can invest in a light board, which will shine light through regular paper, allowing you to see what you're tracing.

What is the trace heating or heat tracing?

Heat tracing can be of 2 types: 1] Electrical Heat tracing: 2] Steam Tracing: Electrical heat tracing can be described as an insulated electrical heating cable, which is spiralled around the process fluid pipe( or object that needs to be heated), after which the pipe and tracing is insulated with the appropriate type and thickness of insulation lagging material. In steam tracing, instead of electrical heating cable, small pile is spiralled which carry steam thereby heating the desired object.


Can light go through tracing paper?

Yes, light can pass through tracing paper. Tracing paper is a semi-transparent material that allows light to pass through while diffusing it to some extent, making it suitable for tracing and drawing.
