cooling medium expansion vessel
cooling medium expansion vessel
(OP)
im setting the design pressure for a cooling medium expansion tank. the cooling medium system serves shell and tube heat exchangers on a gas compression train. the coolers have bursting discs at 10 barg. is there any problems with expansion vessel being designed for atmospheric pressure as its vented to a safe location and normally runs at atmospheric pressure.
thanks.
thanks.

RE: cooling medium expansion vessel
"vessel being designed for atmospheric pressure" is not clear what the vessel design pressure is, 0 psig or 14.7 psig?
If the vessel design pressure is below 15 psig, the vessel will not be classified as pressure vessel.
