This pressure is minimal by comparison to what I've working on for the past few years. We already have a piece of kit from the same company who will be building this rig that runs up to 110bar before the burst disc goes, the vessel itself is rated to 250 bar max safe limit and 350bar before...
Yes the system will be fully pressurised to prevent any steam forming.
I don't think I phrased the question particularly well, it should probably have read:
"If I have a 0.5m long tube, how do I work out the power required to heat the water by 180C?"
Thanks for the help so far.
Hi all,
Sorry if this seems trivial but I think I may have managed to confuse myself and could do with some help.
I need to specify a tape heater power output for a small rig through which water will be heated to 200C. Having gone through the Q=m*cp*ΔT equation where:
m = 0.1658x10-3...
