Safety relief valves
are key assets in any process plant that operates under pressure. Acting as a
'last resort', these fully mechanical devices are designed to operate if an
over-pressure situation occurs. They therefore safeguard the plant and help
guarantee production, but, more importantly, protect the plant's most valuable
asset, its workforce. This special interest box has been designed to provide an
introduction to safety relief valves. A number of technical papers are
provided, giving an overview of basic design types, codes, testing, etc, as
well as addressing topical problems such as the influence of back pressures and
safety valve noise. It also have the great facility of the air relied valve.
For advice on selection and installation links have been provided to
application guides, whilst information on standards can be accessed via the
Standards section. Finally, please feel free to visit our Cyber Guide and Press
Room, for details about suppliers. Safety and relief
valve products range in size from 1/4-inch NPT through 6-inch flange and are
suitable for services ranging from cryogenic to 850°F at set pressures ranging
from vacuum to 6,500 psig. Pressure relief valves and vents in the
petrochemical industry are often the last line of defense in averting a major
accident. Recent design standards (API 520/521) have been developed which have
reduced the recommended exit velocities for hydrocarbons from pressurized. It
includes the timer gas valve that is very perfect in the function of the valves
with the maximum safety and storage.
There are computer models available which predict the release and dispersion of
high velocity gas jets. In some instances, these models have been modified to
account for the formation and dispersion of aerosol clouds. This paper will
compare the API recommended practices with actual test data and current model
predictions.
