Hello Everyone,

 

Can someone please tell me why flare lines have to be on an elevation. I know we have to slope into a flare. Is there a recommended height to start from?  

 

Also, can anyone help me with expansion loop design reference? Thank you for your anticipated responses.

Hello, I commented that the height of the pipes determines where teams come and drag as to prevent any liquid as possible to avoid ignitions flare burning.
Also there are other types of flares, flare example ground.
I recommend you read the API 521, which is the oil and gas regulations for sizing them.
 
If you prune not find, send your email to maxperrone@gmail.com.
 
Sorry for poor English
