Radiator air vents

How do I figure the proper size of radiator air vents in a one pipe steam system? I have a two story four family residence. Is there a spec. sheet or chart somewhere?
Thanks

Sizing these vents
is done by measuring the air in the radiators and runouts. This is similar to calculating the capacity of steam mains to choose vents for them.
The charts and procedures you need are in Dan's "Dead Men's Steam School" video and workbook. Dan goes thru the procedure in the video (which is very well done) and the charts are in the workbook. Order yours on the Books and More page of this site.
