Control Flow Rate & Pressure of Boiler Steam Engine

[y2j]

How can one control the flow rate and the pressure of the outlet steam from the Boiler of steam engine

 

[jedishrfu]

Do you mean a pressure release valve for when th pressure gets too high?

THANKS
I would like to built a small electrical boiler to generate steam
the outlet steam (must be at a specified pressure and flow rate ) from boiler can use in another purposes.
Anyone can give me an idea about the "control of the flow rate and the pressure of the out steam "
thanks again

That would be done with a devise called a valve. The valve of course, would have to be controlled by devices that sense pressure and flow rate.

ps. Are you building a steam driven car?

 

[y2j]

what is the name of these devises of "pressure and flow rate."

I will design and manufacturing a prototype of power plant.

Pressure gauge.

...and flow rate."

A name, for a device, that measures flow?

hmmmm...

I will design and manufacturing a prototype of power plant.

If you hang around PF long enough, we will help you with that.

really
I mean a device that keep the pressure and flow rate at constant value not to their measure

As I said, it's called a valve.

But without measuring devices, this requires a constant pressure source, and a constant steam absorbing load.

spend some time familiarizing yourself with the terminology and devices.

Here's the site of an old line steam equipment supplier.
