To protect a pressurized system from overpressure, one of the most established strategies is to install a Pressure Safety Valve (PSV). Therefore, the excess pressure of the system is relieved through a vent pipe when PSV opens. The vent pipe is also called “PSV Outlet Header”. After the process starts, a transient two-phase flow is formed inside the outlet header consisting of high speed pressurized gas interacting with existing static air. The high-speed jet compresses the static air towards the end tail of the pipe until it is discharged to the ambiance and eventually, the steady state is achieved. Here, this transient process is investigated both analytically and numerically using the method of characteristics. Riemann’s solvers and Godunov’s method are utilized to establish the solution. Propagation of shock waves and flow property alterations are clearly demonstrated throughout the simulations. The results show strong shock waves as well as high transient pressure take place inside the outlet header. This is particularly important since it indicates the significance of accounting for shock waves and transient pressure, in contrast to commonly accepted steady state calculations. More precisely, shock waves and transient pressure could lead to failure, if the pipe thickness is chosen only based on conventional steady state calculations.

High speed microscopy experiments investigating two-phase (gas-liquid) flow behavior in capillary-scale systems, that is, systems where capillary forces are important relative to gravitational forces, have revealed a unique unsteady annular flow with periodic destabilization of the gas-liquid interface. Standing waves develop on the liquid film and grow into annular lobes similar with those observed in low-speed two-phase flow. The leading face of the lobe will decelerate and suddenly become normal to the wall of the capillary, suggesting the possibility of a shock wave in the gas phase at a downstream location from the minimum gas flow section. Visualization of the naturally occurring convergent-divergent nozzle-like structures as well as a discussion on the possibility of shock wave formation are presented.
