Dear all,

I need someone to help me on calculating tank design venting rate.

During pressure transfer from one vessel which is at 200psig + 10' static liquid head to another empty tank. After 100% transfer, liquid level will be 8'. Since it is pressure transfer, most of the gas from first tank will also flow to the recipient tank. in this case, how should I calculate venting capacity of recipient tank? Recipient tank vent gas goes to an atmospheric scrubber through a control valve set at 2100 SCFH.

Thank you

Jaytamuk

dear ur query does indicate transfer of liquified gas from one tk to other, also specify the location outlet & vent nozzles for both the connected tanks.
