Dear Members.
I am working on jet fuel piping project ( Location is Middle east ) .
Client ask me to calculate the pressure increase due to thermal expansion of the blocked inventory .
Piping design pressure and design pressure of the thermal relief valve is 65 bar g. piping op. pressure is 45 bar g & op temperature is ambient. temperature of the liquid in stand still condition during summer is 50 Deg C.
My question is it really required to do the calculations for pressure rise ?
I had already calculated rate of thermal relief valve through the valve . pl. refer attached calculation sheet.
If to calculate the pressure rise , need to know the initial gauge pressure of the blockade liquid in the pipeline.
awaiting for the valuable advice from the community members.
Regards
Vaibhav
