    Tutorial Depressuring Second (Compatibility Mode)

    The document discusses issues with using HYSYS depressuring utility to model a real system. The utility only models a single vessel, so it has difficulty matching the actual wetted area and volumes. It also only models pool fires and not jet fires. The summary provides a spreadsheet method to address these issues by deleting the pre-calculated wetted area and allowing the user to directly input the actual wetted area value based on real data. This allows matching the model results to the conditions of the real system.

    Fill Depressuring Inventory Data

    Calculate the wetted area based on this size. Then, Compare with the actual wetted area

    HYSYS Liquid percent = 35.6 % Wetted height = (35.6 / 100) * 11.37 Wetted Area = 96 ft2 (8.9 m2) ACTUAL Wetted Area

    = 155 ft2 ( 14.4 m2)

    Checking the wetted area of this model, will result the wetted area is different with the actual wetted area The model volume is good enough but sometimes the wetted area is not match with the real condition.

    Process System

    Fill Depressuring HEAT FLUX of FireAPI521

    To be applied only if heat flux of 21.000 BTU/hr ft^1.64 or Q = : Q = 21000FA^0.82

    C2 is locked, we cannot use this value for jet fire and when fraction area 1.0 ( in small system)

    CHECK !

    Other cases , such as *) 1. For system with adequate draining and fire fighting do not exist, the heat flux is 34500 BTU/hr.ft^1.64 C1 = 34500 2. Jet fire , the heat flux is 95,500 BTU/ft2/hr. C1 = 95,500 2. For small system, the fraction area exposed by fire is 1.0 instead of 0.82 C2 = 1 3. For vessel with insulation, or covered by earth, the environment factor less than 1.0 ex = 0.3

    Process System

    CHECKING HEAT FLUX Correlation Double click the sub flow sheet of depressuring environment double click Duty spreadsheet go to sub-flow sheet

    Lets checking this spreadsheet after running

    Sometimes, this wetted area is different with the actual data.

    Process System

    CHECKING HEAT FLUX Correlation after Running

    With input data heat flux of 21000 btu/ft^1.64/hr (POOL FIRE CASE). Unit is already consistent .

    Sometimes, this wetted area is different with the actual data.

    With input data heat flux of 34500 btu/ft^1.64/hr (POOL FIRE DRAINAGE DO NOT EXIST). Unit is already consistent

    Process System

    With input data heat flux of 94500 btu/ft2/hr ( = 300 kW/m2) (JET FIRE CASE ). Unit is NOT consistent.

    C2 = 1 for jet fire

    1. JET FIRE consider less wetted area than pool fire. 2. Use one biggest equipment for the wetted area consideration

    Process System

    Input C1 = 300 000 W/m2 instead of 94500 btu/ft2/hr

    With input data heat flux of 300000 W/m2( = 300 kW/m2) (JET FIRE CASE ) Unit is consistent.

    Process System

    Now ,,We GET the PROBLEM. 1. HYSYS Depressuring Utility does not have Jet fire case 2. The Wetted Area not match with the real condition

    Process System

    Spreadsheet method

    Click view spreadsheet

    go to spreadsheet
    Unit area in m2, therefore Input C1 = 300 kW/m2 C2 = 1 C3 = 1

    Cannot be changed

    Process System

    Select connections page and delete Cell D8 for tank wetted area.

    DELETE : tank wetted area D8

    Back to spreadsheet

    Now, the wetted area can be revised based on actual data

    Input = 1, FireAPI 521 method is Applied

    10

    Process System

    VERYFY RESULT
    View Historical Data

    Wetted area match with the actual data

    # Wetted Area = 14.4 m2 # Duty = 300 x 1 x 14.4 = 4320 kW

    11

    Process System

    SUMMARY In Hysys Depressuring utility, the model is only specified as one horizontal or vertical vessel. Dimension of that single vessel, is back calculated based on total liquid and vapour volume. Wetted area calculation is difficult for horizontal vessel. It is very difficult to match wetted area and liquid volume of vessel with wetted area and volume of a real system. HYSYS also provided fire case of pool fire and doesnt have Jet fire case. To overcome this problem, we can use spreadsheet method as explained in this tutorial.
