Liquid psv line sizing
Liquid psv line sizing
(OP)
I am looking at sizing the lines upstream and downstream of a liquid case psv. My pipe contains produced water i..e water with a very small amount of gas 1%. I have sized the inlet for 3% pressure losses as per api520. Is there any guidelines or good working practices w.r.t max velocity allowed in the inlet or outlet pipes to the psv or stress requirements rho v2 max limits.
kind regards michael

For stress and reaction forces, use AP 521 to determine the relief thrust force and then design the piping accordingly.
