Deflagration Vent Design

ioKinetic is well versed in NFPA standards and understands that alternative approaches may be necessary when sizing deflagration vents. Should your process fall into the NFPA applicability limits, we can quickly and easily apply these sizing calculations. Real-life plant scenarios need to be factored into the final approach and ioKinetic has the experience and equipment to reliably make this happen. Better understanding of deflagration events allows for better design of mitigation systems, including deflagration vents. Various approaches may be used for meeting the performance-based option in NFPA 68 for operation outside the applicability limits of the simple equations. ioKinetic can help with dynamic simulation for processes that do not fall within the narrow limits of NFPA 68 sizing calculations.
