    PSVs Venting to Tank

    There is a PSV set at 1440psi piped to a 400bbl tank through a 2" line. The maximum gas rate through the PSV would be about 10 mmscf/d. The tank is venting through two 8" vents. Does anyone know how I could calculate the pressure in the tank the instant that the PSV vents gas to the tank?
