October 15, 1909 PLUMBER AND STEAMFITTER High Pressure Connections for Steam Heating J. F. Bennett, in the Plumbers Trade Journal, Discusses theInstalation of Steam Heating Systems and the Pressure Radi-ators Can Carry. Generally speaking, heating work now-adays is usually in the form of one, ortwo-pipe, low pressure gravity returnsystems, or what is known as the va-cuum-vapor systems. Occasionally, how-ever, high pressure work, or steam cir-culation under high pressure, is re-quired. Just what really (-(institutes highpressure is a question about which. Fig. 1. Condensation Return to BoilerThrough Receiver and Return Trap. many fitters disagree. The ordinarylow pressure gage registers only 30pounds, consequently it is customary tocall a pressure in excess of 30 pounds,above the atmosphere, high pressure. Low pressure gravity return systemsare usually designed with a sufficientquantity of radiation to heat a build-ing at from one to five pounds pres-sure. The temperature of steam increases,according to the increase in pressure,approximately as follows : Pounds. Temperature. 1 212 degrees 5 228 10 240 25 267 50 295 75 320 100 337 Obviously, a 100 square foot radiatorat 100 pounds pressure, will emit moreheat than will a. radiator of the samesize at one pound pressure. Thus, wherethe question of space for radiation en-ters into consideration, a building maybe heated by less radiating surface un-der high pressure, than under low pres-sure.
