Sizing a pressure relief valve means answering three questions in order: what is the worst credible overpressure scenario, how big is its relief load, and what or***ce passes that load within the allowable accumulation.
We built a free tool that walks all three, offline, in one browser tab.
The PSV Relief Load Calculator Ultimate applies API 521 to establish the loads, API 520 to size the device, and API 526 to pick the standard or***ce - across blocked outlet, external fire (pool and jet), thermal expansion, control valve failure, tube rupture, gas blowby, and two-phase relief. It auto-selects the governing case, flags critical versus subcritical flow, and recommends the or***ce letter with the spare-capacity margin.
Every equation was derived from first principles and cross-checked against an independent calculation. It is deliberately screening-grade: a fast first pass for study and checking, to be confirmed by a qualified engineer with certified coefficients for final design.

Are you still losing 60%+ of your differential pressure to or***ce plates? It might be time to switch to a Venturi meter.

Because of its gentle diverging cone, a Venturi meter typically recovers most of the differential pressure, losing only 5-20% permanently. For large lines, continuous high flow, or dirty service, that translates to massive long-term energy savings on pumping and compression.

To make sizing and analysis easier, AIEnginear has released the Venturi Meter Pro Ultimate—a completely free, ISO 5167-compliant engineering suite.

Why you'll love it:
🔹 Calculates flow, discharge coefficient, expansibility, beta ratio, and pressure recovery for liquid, gas, and steam.
🔹 Advanced analysis includes cavitation, choked flow, Mach number, and ISO GUM uncertainty.
🔹 Includes lifecycle economics and DP transmitter sizing.
🔹 100% Offline & Private: Runs entirely on your device—no license server or internet connection required.
