Safety valve calculation according to ISO 4126-1 and API 520
API 520 and ISO
4126-1 calculation methods are implemented, with the API one as
default. It is limited to monophasic flow. Although a Medium is
declared, and physical properties can be taken from it (except the
isentropic coefficient for gases, that must be always entered by
hand), there is the possibility of manual entering of all the
physical properties. If you enter all physical properties manually,
you can use data for a different fluid than that of the Medium. The
Medium will be used just for generating P and H at the PortA, with
H being passed to the PortB if the calculation has been activated.
As H is not used in the calculation of the flow, if the pressures
are OK the calculation should be fine.
