Pipe2024: Steam analyzes the steady-state flows and pressures in steam distribution networks. Flows are steady, one-dimensional, and saturated. Pipe2024: SuperSteam is an advanced version of Steam. SuperSteam was developed specifically for modeling distribution networks designed for superheated steam. SuperSteam models heat loss, but Steam does not. |
Pipe2024: Steam is useful for determining the effects of demand or load changes. It can accommodate large networks, looped systems, and multiple supply and load points. The powerful steam hydraulic engine ensures accurate results even for very large and highly complex networks with multiple supply sources and with a significant variation in steam pressures (e.g., extremely high pressures near steam generating plants and extremely low pressures near the demand points downstream of PRV stations). Several scenarios may be set up in a single model, such as load changes or open/closed valves. Click here for our model comparisons and limitations page. |
