An increase in temperature results in an increase in electrical conductivity the conductivity increases at the rate of approximately 2% (of the value at 25°C) for every 1°C increase in temperature This can be written as: Example 3123 A sample has an unneutralised conductivity of 5 000 S/cm at 25°C
Learn MoreTo ensure acceptable steam purity the American Boiler Manufacturers Association (ABMA) specifies boiler water composition limits by operating pressure (Table 1) As operating pressures increase requirements for boiler water composition become more stringent Water tube boilers experience heat flux rates as high as 250000 Btu/hour/ft 2 This heat flux rate is far greater than boilers typically
