Security valve for direct discharge to atmosphere
Security valve for direct discharge to atmosphere
(OP)
Hello, I've got a problem to evaluate if a flow rate of maximum 5.046m3/h of propane will develop a counterpressure higher than 1 or 1.5 bar when it's discharged directly towards atmosphere, through a security valve of 1.25" of discharge diameter and with a length of 1.5m at the end of a pipe. If so I would not be able to open the valve!!!

You are using some unconventional fluid flow terminology. I recommend you obtain "Crane Technical Paper 410". Not only will it help with conventional fluid flow terminology, it will help you solve your problem. It is inexpensive, concise, and world renowned. It is available in English or Metric for US$36 at www.tp410.com . It may also be available at a used book website like Addall, Alibris, Amazon, and Powell.
Good luck,
