    Process Calculation: Flare Diameter (D)

    Uploaded by

    kristian08
    This document contains calculations to size a flare stack based on process data including a flow rate of 29,641 kg/h of hydrocarbon vapor. It determines that the inside diameter of the flare should be 0.22 m, the center of the flame will be 2.54 m from the tip and 12.76 m above the tip, and the required height of the flare stack is 38.97 m. It also provides the predicted radiation levels at increasing distances from the base of the flare.
