What is the criteria for sizing inlet and outlet blow down lines on process equipment. I think the RO size has to be restricted to 0.2 beta ratio, but what about the mach number.
I am trying to size a control valve located on the outlet of a condensate pump recycle cooler. For sizing the control valve I need to determine the Critical pressure of the process stream. I generated the phase envelope using HYSYS. However, this shows that the Vapor pressure of the stream at...
I am currently working on logic for interlocking system for a pig launcher/receiver system in which we have a single barrel with two kickers one for launching and other for receiving with two block valves each and a balance line from barrel to launching kicker.
For launching of pig. I...
I am Trying to size the orifices on the outlet line of Blowdown valves venting into the flare header to restrict the maximum flow into the header.
As per my knowledge I think the min Orifice Beta ratio (Orifice ID/Vent pipe ID) should be 0.2. But I need to use smaller orifices to limit the...
Morten,
Thanks for the reply.
I have looked into various soft wares Visualflow, flowmaster etc., and Pipenet SS Module is the cheapest among all.
I guess I am going to go with PIPENET.
Thanks again.
Thanks for the reply.
I currently use PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler module for firewater network hydraulics and is very user friendly.
However, as you mentioned when I checked on their website it is not mentioned that their transient module can be used for flare sizing. Have you used PIPENET for...
Could anyone please suggest a good and user friendly software for designing flare and vent systems and also for blowdown analysis?
I am aware of FLARENET (Aspen Flare System Analyzer), but looking for other options.
Thanks in advance.
