Hi,
I cannot find any equation to help determine the resultant pressure from heating water in a sealed metal container, all I find is PV-nRt which is only gas - We are heating doing this in part to pretreat biomass. sealed tube: vol =170cc containing 80ml.s water: tube heated to 180C. I need to find appropriate relief valve.
How do I determine pressure?
Please show calculations
I assume it does not matter how much water is in the tube, the "gas" part of the tube has no influence on the specific pressure generated by heat/water (?)
Thanks so much!
