Hi,
Consider I have a sealed container with some water in it, put it on a normal stove. Obviously after some time it will explode due to the steam pressure. To avoid this, I drill a hole so the steam can escape.
Is there a minimum diameter for this hole?
How should I calculate it? Assuming 1 litre of water and a methane burning temperature as source of the heat.
Many thanks in advance.
