OSTI ID:5330976
A safety relief valve is an essential and important piece of equipment on virtually any pressured system. Required by the ASME-UPV Code, among others, it must be carefully sized to pass the maximum flow produced by emergency conditions. After it is installed the user hopes that it will never have to operate, which makes the safety relief valve rather unique as compared to other types of process equipment. This discusses ways in which product is lost through these valves, and offers some suggestions for reducing or eliminating these losses.
