EN 13136:2013+A1:2018 (E) 10 6 Pressure relief devices for protection of system components 6.1 General Calculations shall be based on known or assumed processes which result in increases in pressure. All foreseeable processes shall be considered including those covered in 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4. For the general purposes of this European Standard, hvap is calculated at 1,1 times the set pressure of the pressure relief device. If the set pressure of the pressure relief valve times 1,1, is higher than the saturated pressure of the refrigerant at (critical temperature minus 5 [K]) then hvap and vo shall be taken at critical temperature minus 5 [K]. If the temperature, at 1,1 times the set pressure of the pressure relief device, is higher than the saturated temperature (superheated gas), then hvap shall be taken at saturated condition. In case of relieving CO2 to a pressure below the triple point (e.g. atmospheric pressure), there is a possibility to create solid CO2. Necessary precautions shall be taken to ensure a safe operation. Vessels operating normally in the gas phase may however contain liquid refrigerant, which may evaporate under an external heat impact. NOTE Vessels only containing refrigerant in the gas phase do not produce a continuous mass flow under an external heat impact. In case of supercritical pressure, the valve shall be suitable for both gas and liquid. 6.2 Excessive pressure caused by heat sources 6.2.1 External heat sources Where necessary the minimum required discharge capacity of the pressure relief device for pressure vessels shall be determined by the following: surfmdvapφ××=3600AQh [kg/h] (1) For those pressure vessels in this European Standard, the density of heat flow rate is assumed to be φ=2 10 kW/m (2)
but a higher value shall be used if necessary. Where the thickness(s) of the insulation of the pressure vessel is bigger than 0,04 [m] and the insulation is tested according to reaction of fire as described in EN 13501-1 and classified better than class C, a reduced density of heat flow rate can be used and determined as follows: φφ=×2red004kW/m,[]s (3) The sizing of the pressure relief device and calculating of pressure loss are carried out in accordance with Clause 7. For pressure vessels the total external surface area of the vessel shall be taken as Asurf. SIST EN 13136:2014+A1:2019

Due to its unique design, some fin and tube heat exchangers in refrigeration systems may be classified according to Article 1 paragraph 2.1.2 last sentence. For further details, see guideline 2/4 of PED 97/23/EC. Higher values for density of heat flow rate than 10 kW/m2 may be necessary where in case of fire full engulfment for the pressure vessel is to be expected and/or in the case the pressure vessel is insulated with a flammable insulation. Other calculation methods could be necessary in case of heat radiation with a higher heat flow directed to one side of the vessel. Where pressure vessels of a refrigerating system are protected against excessive pressure according to EN 378-2:2008+A2:2012, 6.2 and monitored according to EN 378-3:2008+A1:2012, Clause 7 and installed in special machinery rooms as specified in EN 378-3:2008+A1:2012, Clause 5, no external heat sources for sizing the pressure relief devices used for those vessels themselves may be considered. But, nevertheless, for the sizing of those pressure relief devices on the low pressure side of the refrigerating system all connected pressure vessels, compressors and pumps should be taken into account (EN 378-2:2008+A2:2012, 6.2.6.3). Combustion heat potential of insulations in case of fire is not part of the calculations in this European Standard. Care should be taken at welding activities near insulated vessels and pipes. Electric equipment inside of the flammable insulation should be carried out according to EN 60204-1. 6.2.2 Internal heat sources The minimum required discharge capacity of the pressure relief device for conditions which arise due to an internal source of excessive heat shall be determined by the following: hmdvap×=3600QQh [kg/h] (6) The sizing of the pressure relief device and calculating of pressure loss are carried out in accordance with Clause 7. SIST EN 13136:2014+A1:2019



EN 13136:2013+A1:2018 (E) 12 6.3 Excessive pressure caused by compressors The minimum required discharge capacity of the pressure relief device for excessive pressure caused by compressors shall be determined by the following: md10vρη=××××60QVn [kg/h] (7) For low temperature operations, where it can be established that the compressor motor cannot run with the suction pressure corresponding to 10 °C saturated conditions, then the value at the highest suction pressure shall be used in the calculation. NOTE 1 In cases where discharge shut-off valves are not fitted, a high pressure relief device will suffice, providing there are no intermediate shut-off valves. NOTE 2 Non-positive displacement compressors need not have a pressure relief device providing it is not possible to exceed the maximum allowable pressure. NOTE 3 Relieving to the low pressure side may cause compressor overheating and / or uncontrolled internal pressure in compressors (e.g. in screw compressors). EN 12693 covers compressors which can run against a closed discharge valve. EN 12693 should, therefore, be considered, especially the requirement covering conditions under which the allowable evaporating temperature exceeds the value of 10 °C by more than 5 K. The sizing of the pressure relief device and the calculation of the pressure loss shall be carried out in accordance with Clause 7. 6.4 Excessive pressure caused by liquid expansion The effective area dr×AK of the pressure relief device to protect against excessive pressure caused by the expansion of trapped liquid shall be at least 0,02 mm2 per litre of trapped volume, except that the minimum diameter shall not be less than 1 mm. For refrigerants where the temperature difference between relieving temperature and critical temperature is less than 20 [K], then the expansion of trapped liquid shall be at least 0,04 mm2 per litre of trapped volume. NOTE Liquids having a temperature close to the critical temperature expand considerably. It is advisable to take into account the backpressure ratio pb/po and the possibly reduced stroke of the pressure relief valve. The possibility of contamination by dirt should be considered. Where practicable, the pressure relief device shall relieve to the low pressure side of the system and the pressure relief device shall meet the following requirements even at maximum back pressure: osetatm≤×+11,ppp [bar]
(8) 7 Discharge capacities of pressure relief devices 7.1 General When the operational characteristics have been satisfactorily established, it is acceptable to use steam, air or other gas of known characteristics as the fluid for flow characteristics tests except for valves SIST EN 13136:2014+A1:2019

When discharged quantities are being assessed, the valve disc shall be held at the minimum lift as determined by the operating characteristics test. 7.2 Determination of pressure relief valve performance 7.2.1 Determination of coefficient of discharge The coefficient of discharge is calculated from: mdm='qKq [-] (9) The de-rated coefficient of discharge is calculated from: drd=×09,KK [-]
(10) 7.2.2 Critical and sub-critical flow The flow of a gas or vapour through an orifice, such as the flow areas of a pressure relief valve, increases as the outlet pressure is decreased until critical flow is achieved. Further decrease in outlet pressure will not result in any further increase in flow. Critical flow occurs when boκκκ−≤+121/()pp [–]

If the flow is critical Kb = 1, and if the flow is sub-critical, the correction factor shall be calculated according to Formula (14) in 7.2.4 or taken from Table A.3. 7.2.3 Function of the isentropic exponent (C) The function (C) of the isentropic exponent is calculated from: κκκκ+−=××+11239481()/(),C [–] (13) For this calculation, the value of K shall be as measured at 25 °C and 1,013 bar.

For valves where the lift is a function of back pressure, the manufacturer shall state the maximum permissible back pressure ratio pb/po and the relating certified coefficient of discharge taking into account the possibly reduced stroke of the pressure relief valve. 7.2.5.2 Calculation of the mass flow The mass flow for critical and sub-critical flow is calculated from: omdrbo=×××××02883,pQCAKKv [kg/h]
