Warning - Total DP 10% Inlet Pressure! Use Compressible Flow Calculator!

This document summarizes the line sizing calculations for a vent line with a vapor flow rate of 11468.5 kg/hr at 0.14 Barg and 15°C. It evaluates pipe sizes of 8", 10", and 12" and calculates pressure drops through straight pipe, fittings, and equipment. The 8" line is selected with a total pressure drop of 0.39 bar which is below the 10% inlet pressure warning threshold.
