Ever since the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) implemented its National Emphasis Program in 2007, a facility’s pressure relief systems design basis has come under increasing scrutiny. Recognizing that they may not be fully compliant, many companies have conducted audits of their relief systems design basis to determine their current state, identify gaps, and establish a path forward for compliance.

In this newsletter, Georges Melhem, Ph.D., FAIChE, explains the numerous advantages of using Process Safety Office® SuperChems™ software for compressor performance and relief systems modeling. Topics include:

  • Regulatory Background
  • Compressor Types
  • Steps to Compressor Modeling
  • SuperChems™ Features and Benefits

Bonus!

This newsletter also includes access to a 35-minute presentation where Georges Melhem, Ph.D., FAIChE, provides guidance on pilot operated pressure relief valves and dynamic modeling utilizing Process Safety Office® SuperChems™ software. These relief valves can be modeled in detail using either a dual degree of freedom (DDOF) model or a lumped single degree of freedom (SDOF) model.

Have a great and safe day.
