Influence of Pipeline Operating Pressure on Value Setting of Automatic Control Valves at Different Pressure Drop Rates

When a natural gas pipeline ruptures, the adjacent upstream and downstream automatic control valves (ACV) should close quickly to prevent leakage or explosion. The differential pressure set point (DPS) at each valve location is the main criteria for value setting in ACV actions. If the DPS is not pr...
