Accidental Release Flow Rates
Accidental releases of hazardous materials will inevitably occur in any large refrigeration plant ... and the emergency response to such accidental discharges often requires a determination of the release flow rate. A technical article entitled "Source Terms For Accidental Discharge Flow Rates" is available at this web site:
........ http://www.air-dispersion.com/source.html
The article provides and explains the equations used to determine release flow rates from:
- Gas discharge from a pressure source
- Liquid discharge from a pressurized vessel
- Liquid discharge from a non-pressurized vessel
- Evaporation from a non-boiling liquid pool
- Evaporation from a pool of cold boiling liquid
- Discharge of a flashing saturated liquid
- Discharge of a flashing sub-cooled liquid
- Adiabatic flash of a liquified gas release
