Can someone please help me figure out the edr of some copper fin steam radiators I have on the first floor in my home?  I am finding it very difficult getting information on calculating these for steam.....

They are 2 inch steel pipe with 4x6 inch copper fins spaced a 1/16 apart:

One is 35" and the other is 47"



Thanks!

    photos would help

    if you post a photo we can probably figure the manufacturer and go from there.
    Cost is what you spend , value is what you get.

    That is slightly difficult

    they are barried into the wall with an opening of about 3 inchs and then the fin rad then about 5 inches up is the wall grill.  I have these on the first floor, only in the dinning room and living room.  I dont believe that these were a retrofit after the system, also the system is a trane vapor vac.
