Pressure relief valves are critical components in high‐pressure systems across diverse industrial sectors, including energy, nuclear, and chemical processing. Their dynamic behaviour, particularly ...

In steam boiler applications, pressure relief valves (PRVs) are the silent sentinels — the last line of defense against potentially disastrous overpressure situations. In a perfect world, boiler ...

For the past 15 years, pilot-operated safety relief valves (POSRVs) have effectively and reliably protected economizers on Section I power boilers in overpressure situations, working in tandem with ...

Although relief devices may never be activated, they must be designed and sized to function correctly every time they are necessary. This article provides an introduction to sizing pressure-relief ...

In 1905, a boiler in a Boston shoe factory blew up, traveled a great distance through the air, and landed, with delightful justice, in the front yard of the operating engineer’s house. Think it got ...
