how do you calculate trap capacity on a superheated steam line?

200# steam at 500deg F. There theoretically should not be any condensate but there should still be a drip leg. How do calculate the condensate load.

Get a Steam Utilization handbook from the Spirex/Sarco Corp.

Go To http://www.spiraxsarcosteamtraps.com/

You will have your highest trap load on startup of the system as all the piping and components must warm up to operating temperature.
