The diagram and table below can be used to indicate condensate generated due to heat loss in insulated steam pipes.

generation of condensate in insulated steam lines

The table is based on a surrounding temperature of 20oC and 80% insulation efficiency compared with uninsulated pipes.

At a surrounding temperature -20oC approximately 50% condensate load should be added.
