HYSYS Depressurisation Example

This document presents the results of a depressurization calculation to determine the required orifice bore diameter. The calculation models the depressurization of a vessel containing liquid and vapor from an initial pressure of 9901 kPa over 900 seconds through an orifice-controlled valve. It specifies vessel parameters, material properties, heat transfer coefficients, initial conditions and calculates final pressures, temperatures, mass flows and an optimized orifice diameter of 0.9500 meters to achieve the desired depressurization.
