As normally designed, vapor flow through a typical high-lift safety reliefs valve is characterized by limiting sonic velocity and critical flow pressure conditions at the orifice (nozzle throat), and for a given orifice size and gas composition, mass flow is directly proportional to the absolute upstream pressure. [Pg.159]

Pressure relief valves are a critical safety item in almost all process facilities. Pressure relief valves simply must work. This means that they must never be blocked in from the equipment item(s) that they are protecting. Yet their very criticality means that relief valves will have to be routinely isolated and/or removed from the system that they are protecting so that they can be maintained and tested— both for the pressure at which they open and, more rarely, for their flow capacity. [Pg.369]

Example 7.4 Dimensioning of a safety valve for pressure relief with two-phase flow—critical (choked) discharge. [Pg.246]
