Objective:
This workshop will serve as an introduction to BLOWDOWN, where you will use the single-vessel
template to design an orifice pool fire depressurization scenario and simulate a cold case
depressurization scenario.
On the BLOWDOWN Analysis form, change the name to Fire Case. Then, from the
Template drop-down list, select the SingleVessel.blo – Single Vessel BLOWDOWN
Template.
In the Ambient Air Properties section, specify the Air Temperature (Temperature of
ambient conditions) as 21C and Air Speed (Speed of air) as 2.438m/s under System tab.
Under the Define Fire Zone section, check the box next to Main Vessel.
Do not specify Equipment Conditions Upstream of Orifice. These will be updated from a
HYSYS stream that will be linked in the Initial Inventory section.
Expand Initial Inventory-Main Vessel, on the left-hand side of System tab. Select the
Manual radio button, then click the Copy from Stream button.
Select the Feed_Mix_Fire_RP stream on the Select Process Stream dialog box and then
click OK. HYSYS copies the composition of the selected stream.
Click the Copy to Initial Conditions button. This button overwrites the Initial
Temperature and Initial Pressure values in the Equipment Conditions Upstream of
Orifice table in the Template Parameters section.
Select Fire Zone Vessels in the left-hand pane to specify vessel information on the
Geometry, Heat Transfer and Initial Conditions tabs.
On the Geometry tab provide the following geometry specifications.
Move to the Simple Fire tab. Make sure Apply to Liquid is selected as the Heat Flux
Method.
On the Initial Conditions tab, specify the Initial Liq. Volume % as 50% which is the
percentage of total volume that is filled by the liquid at the beginning of the blowdown
event.
For the Restriction Orifice geometry information, provide an orifice Diameter of 12.70 mm and
Discharge Coefficient of 1.
To run the BLOWDOWN simulation, click the Run BLOWDOWN on BLOWDOWN Analysis form.
On the Results Summary tab of the BLOWDOWN Analysis form, you can review overall system
plots and key results or warnings from the simulation.
Select the Major Findings page to view major findings from your BLOWDOWN simulation.
Select the Plots page of the BLOWDOWN Analysis form to view in a graphical format.
For the Target Value group, select the User Specified option and specify 50% of the
Design Pressure which is 1825.015 kPa.
On the Parameters tab-Parameters page, in the Tolerance field, specify a tolerance of
around 1-10% of your desired final pressure, so specify 4psi as the tolerance and 0.1 in
as the Step Size.
Start the Adjust block convergence.
What is the size of the Orifice?
