Blowdown Vessel Calculation

THis calculation sheet has been made by me. THis is to carry out blowdown vessel sizing based on velocity & flowrate. It also depends on the upstream pressure and control valve downstream pressure. It is presumed that basics of expansion due to sudden drop in pressure is well understood.
