Gas Separator Liquid Dump Orifice

[1969grad]

It is common practice to use a flow limiting orifice downstream of the level control valve on gas separators.

The purpose is to limit the gas flow rate in the event that the level control valve sticks open and blows gas.

What is the rational for sizing this orifice as far as flow rate.
