OSHA (29 CFR 1910.119) has recognized AIChE / DIERS two-phase flow publications
as examples of "good engineering practice" for process safety management of
highly hazardous materials. The prediction of when two-phase flow venting will
occur, and the applicability of various sizing methods for two-phase
vapor-liquid flashing flow is of particular interest when designing emergency
relief systems to handle runaway reactions. This comprehensive sourcebook
brings together a wealth of information on methods that can be used to safely
size emergency relief systems for two-phase vapor-liquid flow for flashing or
frozen, viscous or non-viscous fluids. Design methodologies are illustrated by
selected sample problems. Written by industrial experts in the safety field,
this book will be invaluable to those charged with operating, designing, or
managing today's and tomorrow's chemical process industry facilities.

This manual highlights multiphase flow phenomenology relevant to design of
emergency relief systems for runaway chemical reactions and storage vessels,
including aspects of gas disengagement within the vessel and gas-liquid flow
within the vent line. It also provides organized background material, so the
reader can make a detailed study of the underlying physical models. Additional
support material includes development of energy balances, multi-component
methodology, and physical property packages used in the SAFIRE Computer Code.
