Hi people;

I must calculate evaporation rate of a solvent from a gooseneck type vent on a tank to estimate an ATEX explosion zone. I have an equation for pool evaporation and opened tank but i can' t calculate evaporation rate of solvent in a tank from an orifice. Also i must consider wind speed.

Do you have any comments?

Hi,

Consider the resources attached to support your work. You may/should  find pointers.

 

A good reference is "Chemical process safety fundamentals with applications " by D.A  Crowl and J.F Louvar - Prentice hall.

 

Hope this helps.
