StandardEditionSectionInquiry #QuestionReply520 part II5th - Aug. : sizing methods for PSV s are specified in RP 520 part I, Section , where the combination correction factor (Kc) is when a rupture disk is installed. It may result from the consideration of pressure drop in rupture disk. In other words, a 10% pressure drop is considered for rupture disk. RP 520 part II, Section , states when a PRV is installed on a process line, the 3% limit should be applied. Question: How I can meet the 3% limit when I want to use a rupture disk upstream of the PRV? I think these are contradictory 3% inlet loss rule applies to both liquid and vapor applications.
