How to calculate what? Pipe size? Wall thickness?

What's the pressure, flow and temperature?

OK pressure & temperature given. Now give flow Tph output and distance to be covered, total nos of valves, bends,fittings,vertical heights etc., the distribution needs to cover plus what is the maximum pressure drop required at the final point. Upon receipt of these the pipe size and pressure drop can be calculated.

Calculate what? Steam flow lbs/hr or kg/hr or tph ? What pressure? What length? what flow?
