Relief Load Calculation Near Critical Temp by Moca Phoenix is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) When calculating relief load for liquids near their critical temperature, using the common practice of dividing heat input by heat of vaporization (equation 1) results in overly conservative relief rate estimates. 2) A more general equation (equation 2) accounts for the decreasing difference between vapor and liquid densities near critical conditions. 3) Using the more accurate equation 2 can significantly reduce estimated relief loads and result in substantial capital cost savings for piping and pre
