PSV Releiving Temp

This document describes a methodology for calculating the relieving temperature and latent heat of vaporization for fire case pressure safety valve sizing using the Shell DEP method. The method involves setting up a model in Aspen HYSYS to simulate flashing of a stream at 5% by mass and heating the liquid portion to its dew point temperature. This relieving temperature and the difference in enthalpy values are used to determine the latent heat of vaporization.
