Problem Statement

How do I calculate the dew point at different pressures?

Solution:

You can use the property Table to calculate the dew point at multiple pressure points. This can be implemented using the Property Table available under Steam Analysis. You can add the Properties Table directly in the stream or via the Navigation Panel. Follow the steps given below:

1. Open the stream where you are interested to know the dew points.
2. Select Analysis under the Attachments tab  and click Create
Step2

3. Create the Property Table via the Attachments tab
