In addition to pressure and temperature, these tables usually include other related values such as specific enthalpy (h) and specific volume (v). It's typically used to determine saturated steam temperature from steam pressure, or the opposite: pressure from saturated steam temperature. This article will introduce steam tables, pointing out the different types and offering an overview of the different elements found within them.Ī saturated steam table is an indispensable tool for any engineer working with steam. Just as a map (or GPS navigation system) is necessary when driving in a new area or a flight timetable is indispensable when taking the plane, steam tables are essential to steam users in industry.
