Book Description

Previous studies have shown that transport vessel pressure relief valves (PRVs) may behave in unexpected ways when exposed to elevated temperatures. This report describes the testing of 16 full-scale tanker truck PRVs for compressed gas service. New and used valves as seen in the industry were subjected to code-compliant air tests and dynamic cycling tests using steam as the testing medium. Results are presented and comparisons made between the air- and steam-based test results, between code requirements and observed behaviour, and between new and used valve performance.

Book Description

Thirty-six contributions from the July 1998 Conference present an analysis of dynamic systems and fluid-structure interaction in reactor technology and fluid-structure interaction. Most of the papers reflect how advances in these fields of research, as a result of the development of high-performance computers and methods of experiment, lead to detailed results that could not have otherwise been obtained. Topics are divided into two sections--technologies in reactor safety and natural hazards engineering, and fluid-structure interaction and sloshing. Concludes with two student papers. Contains an author index but no subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
