We measure the conductivity of steam to monitor its purity and quality. High conductivity in steam can indicate the presence of impurities, such as dissolved solids, which can be harmful to equipment in steam systems. Monitoring conductivity helps in ensuring efficient operation and preventing damage to the system.

What do you understand by property of a system?

The property of steam is the precipitants ingress through the water in to the steam cycle The steam conductivity and silica contents so called property of steam. there fore the boiler drum chlorides(cause of higher conductivity in the Super heated steam) and water PH has to be controlled to get pure Super heated Steam from boiler drum risers. Silica can cause of turbine blades erosion. Higher Conductivity cause of Chlorides which can cause of Corrosion on turbine blades. PH controlled to avoid acid attack and pitting and scales deposition.


What is the thermal conductivity of steam and how does it affect heat transfer in various systems?

The thermal conductivity of steam is approximately 0.016 W/mK. This means that steam is a poor conductor of heat compared to other materials. In systems where steam is used for heat transfer, its low thermal conductivity can result in slower heat transfer rates. This can impact the efficiency and effectiveness of the system, requiring longer heating times or larger heating surfaces to achieve the desired temperature changes.
