Hi everyone
I am currently working on a project and I am stuck on vent sizing.
The parameters are:
Flow out of tank is 250kg/min via a pump
The tanks capacity is 600L
The outlet pipe size has yet to be determined but will either be 1,2 or 3 inches
The vent will be open to atmosphere
The material of the tank is stainless steel
How would I go about and calculate the vent size? Is that enough information?
API 2000 seems to not be helpful as the content in the tank is water and not petroleum
Vent sizing was never covered when I studied Chemical Engineering and I am in desperate need of some help.
Regards
Kevin
