Depressuring Unit Valve Data Window

 

The data entered on this window is used to define the flow characteristics of the relief valve or control valve. All the valve equations are based on liquid, vapor, or a vapor-liquid mixture flow through the valve. The valve upstream pressure is assumed to be the same as the vessel pressure.
