PLANT SAFETY AND PRESSURE RELIEVING OPERATIONS

This chapter describes the basic principles and procedures for the evaluation of overpressure potential in plant equipment, and for the selection, design and specification of appropriate pressure relieving facilities. The design of closed safety valves and flare headers is included in this chapter, but blowdown drums and flares are covered separately. To properly discuss this subject, the reader should become familiar with the following terminology. [Pg.115]

Contingency - An abnormal event which is the cause of an emergency condition. [Pg.115]

Emergency - An interruption from normal operation in which personnel or equipment is endangered. [Pg.115]

Single Contingency - A single abnormal event causing an emergency. [Pg.115]

Single Risk - The equipment affected by a single eontingency. [Pg.115]
