Relief Vent Rate (All-Vapor and All-Liquid Venting) Calculator

Set Temperature (T_r) in K:

Heat Release Rate (q):

Specific Heat at Constant Volume (C_v):

Time (t) in sec:

Latent Heat of Vaporization (h_fa):

Specific Volume of Liquid (v_fa):

Initial Mass (m_o):

Mass Flux (G):

Vent Area (A):

Initial Vent Area (A_o):

Emptying Time (t_r) in sec:

Note:

The Relief Vent Rate Formula is used to determine the temperature rise in a system when venting occurs due to excessive pressure. This is crucial in safety and fire calculations to prevent hazardous conditions.

Newly Added Parameters:

m_o: Initial mass of the gas or liquid.
G: Mass flux, the rate of mass flow per unit area.
A: Vent area through which relief occurs.
A_o: Initial vent area before venting starts.

Real-Life Applications:

This formula is used in designing pressure relief systems for industrial boilers, chemical storage tanks, and gas pipelines to ensure they don't overheat and explode.

Conclusion:

By calculating the maximum temperature, engineers can optimize venting systems and enhance industrial safety.
