When 1 cc of water is converted into steam, it can expand to approximately 1,700 cc (or 1.7 liters) at 100°C and standard atmospheric pressure. This significant increase in volume occurs because steam occupies much more space than liquid water due to the increased energy and separation of water molecules in the gaseous state.

How much does water expand when it turns to steam?

At 212 degrees Fahrenheit water expands approximately 1,700 its original volume when converted to steam.


How much steam will 100 lbs of water make?

100 lbs of steam. The volume that the steam will occupy will depend on the pressure.


How many liters of steam or mist is equal to 1 liter of water?

One liter of water, when converted to steam, occupies a much larger volume due to the differences in density between liquid water and steam. At standard atmospheric pressure, 1 liter of water can produce approximately 1,600 liters of steam. However, this volume can vary depending on temperature and pressure conditions. Therefore, the exact amount of steam that equals 1 liter of water is typically around 1,600 liters under normal conditions.


How much steam to make 1 ton of condensate?

1 ton of steam. how much steam is vague question. steam can be at different pressures and saturations. At 212°F, 14.7 psia, liquid water has a specific volume of 0.016716 ft3/lbm and steam has a specfic volume of 26.80 3/lbm, which is a volume ratio of ~1603 : 1 of steam:water.


How much does steam expand?

Water weighs 1kg per liter. If it is all turned to steam you will have 1kg of steam. Water expands to nearly 1700 times its original volume at 212 degrees.


How would the volume of the water and the volume of the steam compare to the volume of an original ice cube?

The volume of the water was about the same as the volume of the ice, but the volume of the steam was much greater. Copyright © 2012 Study Island - All rights reserved. Copyright © 2012 Study Island - All rights reserved.


Why does steam weigh less than water?

Steam is less dense than liquid water because steam is in the gaseous state, while water is in the liquid state. The molecules in steam are farther apart and have more kinetic energy compared to liquid water molecules, which results in steam having a lower mass per unit volume.


When 30 grams of water is converted into steam how much heat is absorbed?

q = mHvq = heatm = mass (30g)Hv = heat of vaporization (2,260J/g)q = (30g)(2,260J/g)q = 67,800JWhen 30 grams of water is converted into steam, how much heat is absorbed?67,800J of heat, also represented as 67.8kJ of heat is absorbed.


Is steam hotter than boiling water?

Technically speaking steam has a higher temperature, but boiling water often has more heat energy per volume. Steam starts at 100degrees C, which is the absolute maximum temperature of boiling water, but steam can be much much hotter, all the way up to thousands of degrees. However, steam as a gas is much less dense than water, and so steam at 100C will injure a person much less than water at 100C.


How much steam pressure is generated from 1 pound of water at 675F?

At 675°F, 1 pound of water will generate steam pressure of approximately 155.3 psi. This pressure is determined by the temperature at which the water is converted into steam, following the principles of thermodynamics.


How much is1 tone steam to cubic meter?

How much heating power is delivered to a load?

There is no specific ratio, as it depends on the pressure and temperature of the steam. Steam is merely water vapor, at a temperature above the boiling point of water (212 degrees F., 100 degrees C.). When water boils, and turns to steam, the steam will occupy a volume 1846 times that of the water that was converted -- at atmospheric pressure, and at the boiling point of water. Such steam is useful in cooking, for example, to steam vegetables. But in general, it is not very useful at this low pressure. Steam used in industrial processes or to drive engines or turbines, is at much higher pressures. Those pressures are obtained by vaporizing water in a closed vessel, so that the steam is allowed to occupy a volume much less than the 1846 times ratio just noted. Steam in closed vessels can build up to enormous pressures, which ultimately can rupture the vessel. Fragments ejected as shrapnel from such an explosion can have more striking power than a bullet or a cannon shell. Perhaps worse, the released steam contains enormous energy, which can for example scald a human to death almost instantly. For that reason, steam generators are provided with valves which release the steam when a desired pressure is reached. They are provided also with blowoff valves, which open at a somewhat higher pressure, in the event that the orifice or pipe through which steam is withdrawn may not be of sufficient size. Such blowoff valves vent the steam chamber into the atmosphere, or into a condensation chamber. The steam vessels are designed to withstand a pressure usually twice or more the level of pressure that triggers the blowoff valve; this is a safety measure. Because the ratio of water to steam varies, according to pressure and temperature of the steam (and whether it is "wet" steam or "dry" steam), it is more common to speak of pounds of steam. This is the weight of the water converted into steam (of the desired pressure and temperature) in a given time, such as pounds per hour. Water, as you may know, weighs 8.33 pounds per gallon. Knowing the weight of the steam is important, for example in running a steam turbine. The weight of the steam, and its velocity, determine the momentum of the steam; and that can be translated into the force or torque applied to the turbine rotor, thus the output of the turbine. That in turn translates into how many kw. of electricity the turbine-generator can produce per hour. Such computations actually get pretty complicated, but you can see that there is a relationship between the amount of water converted into steam, and the output of an engine or turbine or generator which is driven by that steam. There is a specific field of engineering (and physics) which deals with steam. It is called Thermodynamics, It is essential in designing steam boilers and steam-powered equipment.
