"INLET PRESSURE LOSS
(BAR)"
10" 12" 14" 16"
0.161 0.17 0.184 0.21
Eventhough we increase the line size, still we can't meet criteria 3% of 3.5 barg = 0.105 barg
How is it?
thanks
George,
PSV Set pressure 3.5 barg
Criteria of pressure loss for inlet line of PSV is 3% = 0.105 bar
We have inlet line length 1 meter and 1 gate valve.
Viscosity 15000 cP.
Flow 128250 kg/h
Density 726 kg/m3
The resulf of pressure drop as follows :
size 10" = pressure loss is 0.205 bar,
size 12"...
Dear Experts,
Kindy please advise the inlet pressure loss criteria for high viscous service?
We have viscous fluid viscosity around 15 Pa.s.
As we are aware that API states the inlet line pressure loss shall be less than 3% of set pressure.
Thanks and best regards,
Joko
