Header Design

The document provides design calculations for steam piping components. It calculates the diameter and thickness of an off-take pipe and main steam header given specifications for steam flow rate and pressure. It then selects pipe sizes and materials according to standards. Component selections include a flowmeter, strainer, and thermodynamic steam trap. A system layout diagram shows the arrangement of these components.

DESIGN CALCULATIONS

1. Off-take diameter
Given specifications: 1000 kg/hour @ 35 kg/sq. cm, steam velocity: 15 m/s,

m =pxAxv=jxpxdixv
Substituting m = 600kg/ sec p = 16.67 kg/cu. m and v = 15 m/s, we have d = 37.68 mm.

Commercially available size is 40 NB.


From table, NB=1.660" OD=45 mm ID-38 mm Thick=3mm=0.118"

Maximum temperature ofsteam = 242° C. Permissible temperature of Plain Carbon Steel: 660

4. Main Steam Header diameter
We have calculated off take header diameter. Now,
Area of main steam header2 1.5 x total area of steam supply main leading from header

xd# =1.5 xxmx 45*


Thus we get d= 95.547 mm-100 mm

Maximum temperature of steam = 2420 C. Permissible temperature of Plain Carbon Steel: 660

Thus the following pipes were selected (ANSI Schedule 40 Standard)

D= 95.547 mm so take d=100mm


Outer diameter of insulation GI sheet= 200mm
Thickness of insulation= 50mm
Thickness of GI pipe= 3=4 mm
DESIGN CALCULATIONS

4 . Calculation of thickness of Main Steam Header Insulation:


As it is cylindrical object(pipe), so it is necessary to find the critical radius of insulation.

Renticawhere, K= thermal conductivity of insulation=0.18 W/m k


h= heat transfer coefficient
D.1
ofsurrounding air=10 W/m^2 k( natural convection)
Reritical10= 18 mm but, found thickness=50mm so OK.

ie.insulation will prevent the thermal losses without adding the additional conduction
resistance.

5 . Head Loss due to Friction:
It is found to be 0.1-0.3m.
6. Calculation of main steam header diameter using head loss:
From graph, it is nearly equal to 86 mm due to some errors.

7. Calculation of main steam header diameter using velocity method:


From graph, for given conditions, it is coming to 92 mm approximately.
