Super heated steam:
Super heated
steam is steam that is at a temperature higher than the saturation temperature
for the steam pressure. For example, steam at a pressure of 3 bar g has a
saturation temperature of 143.762°C. If further heat was to be added to this
steam and the pressure remained at 3 bar g, it would become super heated. This
extra heat results in steam which:
- Is
higher than saturation temperature.
- Contains
more energy than saturated steam.
- Has
a greater specific volume than saturated steam.
