This worksheet is a basic tool to assist in determining realistic
maximum steam flow rates for meter sizing purposes. Please list
any special steam loads in addition to those listed below. The
goal is to determine realistic maximum operating flow rate
(simply adding up heat exchanger values tends to show inflated
values). Expand and copy this sheet as necessary.
Please Submit Worksheet(s) with Application Data Form as
necessary.
This is typically oversized
Determine max operational load in Winter &
Summer (low load for Reheat in Summer, if
applicable)
1000 (1000 is "rule of thumb" value)
0
0
Identify any heat recovery devices, such as heat
wheels, that may lower the expected flow rate.
Apply expected % of maximum based on
0 expected system operation.
Tank based systems typically operate in a cyclical
manner once up to temperature. We generally see
800-1500 lb/hr when the unit cycles on. Control
valve never opens 100%.
Consider likely operation for this system.
Snow-melt systems are the exception to the rule
that most steam loads are "overstated". Use
design max value for this type of load.
This is typically oversized
Typically much lower than system "capacity"

Manually add or enter formula, based on
