CEP Sizing Relief Systems for High Viscosity Two-Phase Flow

High viscosity two-phase (HVTP) flow occurs in many industrial scale reactors, particularly when runaway reactions (e.g. during polymerizations) are vented through an emergency relief system. The design of a relief system for two-phase discharge can be complicated, as it involves a fluid with a liquid-like density and a gas-like compressibility. This paper will help you qualify your design methods for high-viscosity two-phase relief systems against these simple benchmarks.
