Key Features of the Relief Valve Sizing Calculator Software
Our software adheres to the latest standards, including API 520 (7th Edition) and API 521 (4th Edition). The main features include:
- Unit Flexibility: Supports both SI and US units, allowing inputs in diverse measurement units for volumetric flow rate, mass flow rate, temperature, viscosity, and pressure.
- Versatile Relief Valve Sizing:
- Sizing of conventional and pilot-operated relief valves for gas or vapor relief.
- Sizing for liquid relief applications.
- Sizing for saturated and superheated steam relief.
- Sizing for vaporizing liquids in wetted vessels.
- Efficient Multi-Case Evaluation: Analyze multiple cases simultaneously.
- Data Management: Save and load inputs for future use.
- Convenient Data Handling: Copy results directly into any document.
- Comprehensive Reporting: Generate detailed summary reports in various formats, including Excel, Word, and PDF.
Calculated Variables
Based on the input parameters and service type, the calculator determines a wide range of variables, such as:
- Relieving Pressure
- Required Effective Discharge Area
- Actual Discharge Area
- Equivalent Orifice Diameter
- Installed Relief Rate
- Device Designation
Additional variables may be calculated depending on the selected service and input parameters.
Specialized Fire Case Calculations in
For vaporizing liquids in wetted vessels (e.g., vessel fire cases), the software also calculates:
- Vaporization Rate
- Total Heat Absorption
- Total Wetted Area
These calculations support various vessel orientations, including vertical, horizontal, and spherical configurations.
Experience a seamless and reliable way to size relief valves for your industrial needs with the Relief Valve Sizing Calculator.
