Flare header (API 521)

relief network rating

Flare-header mode rates a relief network: the tip is a fixed pressure, each relief source is a negative-demand junction, and built-up back-pressure is checked against each device MABP.

เมื่อไรจึงใช้
  • API 521 flare/relief header rating; multi-contingency governing-case studies.
ค่าที่ต้องกรอก
ค่าคำอธิบาย
Tip nodeThe fixed-pressure discharge (flare tip / KO drum).
Relief sourcesPer-source relief rates; grouped into scenarios (single valve, global fire, power failure).
คำนวณอย่างไร

Reuses the gas-momentum solver unchanged (tip = fixed head, source = negative demand); the scenario runner finds each source’s governing (worst) built-up back-pressure.

ข้อควรระวัง
noteBuilt-up back-pressure over MABP → blocking (A39); a source on a fixed-pressure boundary or an unknown scenario id is flagged (A41/A42).
