process engineers

Can you help me in finding references (books, articles, standards, etc.) to calculate relieving temperature?
API 521 mentions an equation only for fire case..

Thanks in advance..

If there is no fire, then why not just use the expected normal temperature of the fluid that is in the vessel?

A better description of your process is needed.

A better description of the relief scenario, that you want the relieving temperature for, is needed too.
