@ the Obturator:
This is the maximum flow a 4" line can handle so basic D-W equation.
The MAWP is 30 psi.
This is an existing vessel and we repurposed it to lower pressure of 30 psi.
the original vessel was designed to 100 psi.
The only reason I did the wetted area calculation is to check the flow to make sure its not very high then max flow through the line.
@Latexman: What do you mean by ... [highlight yello]If rated for full vacuum, the tank's MAWP may be calculated as > 30 psig[/highlight]. If so, it is good...
Hi,
So I am trying to design a PSV for a steam condensate tank with following information:
Operating temp: 120 C (saturated steam coming from plant into it)
Operating pressure: 30 psi
Design pressure for the vessel: 30 psi
Tank: Horizontal (5 ft by 9 ft )
relief Scenario is blocked discharge...
