dear ghasem2010

please find the bellow link for API Recomended Practice 521, Guide for Pressure Relieving and Depressuring System
by: By American Petrolium Institute.

I believe this file contains the same material for the subjects that you are need.
This recommended practice applies to the sizing and selection of pressure relief devices used in
refineries and related industries for equipment that has a maximum allowable working pressure of 15
psig [103 kPag] or greater. The pressure relief devices covered in this recommended practice are
intended to protect unfired pressure vessels and related equipment against overpressure from
operating and fire contingencies.
This recommended practice includes basic definitions and information about the operational
characteristics and applications of various pressure relief devices. It also includes sizing procedures
and methods based on steady state flow of Newtonian fluids.
Pressure relief devices protect a vessel against overpressure only; they do not protect against
structural failure when the vessel is exposed to extremely high temperatures such as during a fire.
See API Recommended Practice 521 for information about appropriate ways of reducing pressure and
restricting heat input.
Atmospheric and low pressure storage tanks covered in API Standard 2000 and pressure vessels
used for the transportation of products in bulk or shipping containers are not within the scope of this
recommended practice.
The rules for overpressure protection of fired vessels are provided in Section I of the ASME Boiler and
Pressure Vessel Code and ASME B31.1, and are not within the scope of this recommended practice.
