R718 (Water/Steam) pressure temperature chart (PT)
This page is a quick steam saturation reference: it connects temperature and saturation pressure for water/steam. This is useful for thermodynamic interpretation, but it is not a diagnostic or a replacement for detailed steam tables.
Pressure basis: absolute vs gauge
The table below uses absolute pressure (kPa(a), bar(a), psi(a)). Many gauges display gauge pressure (relative to ambient). Converting requires local atmospheric pressure:
Pabs = Pgauge + Patm

Generated using CoolProp (the same property engine used by FluidTool) at Q=0 saturation. Values are rounded for readability.

How to verify any row in FluidTool
- Open FluidTool with water selected: /?fluid=Water
- Choose a Two-phase input pair (Temperature & Quality / T + Q).
- Set Q=0 and enter the temperature from the table to read Psat.
