The basic idea is that the valve will close when the pressure inside the vessel reaches a certain level. As the pressure decreases, the spring force Fp will become smaller. The valve remains open while the flow acts on the enlarged disc area. Once the pressure reaches the safe level, the safety valve will close […]
