The purpose of this study is localization of safety relief valves for Nuclear Service through technical development with overall design, fabrication, inspection, capacity certification test and functional qualification test of safety relief valves in accordance with ASME Section III and KEPIC Code. Safety relief valve is the important equipment used to protect the pressure vessel, the steam generator and the other pressure facility from overpressure by discharging the operating medium when the pressure of system is reaching the design pressure of the system. But we're depending on technology of the other country up to the present time. Because we don‘ have our own technologies, we have been spent the great time and money on installing and repairing safety relief valve at nuclear power plant. Therefore we have to achieve the development of safety relief valves for Nuclear Service with our own technologies.

Based on the practical process engineering design and commissioning and startup operation experiences focused on chemical process safety, the comprehensive review of engineering design and installation of the thermal relief valve with its surrounding facility in a chemical plant piping system is provided to enhance the better understanding of the piping system of characteristics of thermal relief valve which is comprised of the theoretical approach, correlation in terms of temperature and pressure increase caused by external heat supply in a piping system, consideration of thermal relief valve engineering design, pressure relieving system of serial thermal relief valves and exception of their installation. It is earnestly suggested that following topic should be implemented during thermal relief valve engineering design, installation and normal operation as well.

To improve the practical application of the thermal expansion of closed long pipeline exposing to external heating sources such as solar energy, safety engineering and system optimization for relief valve in the closed piping system are suggested through theoretical approach, correlation in view of temperature and pressure increase caused by external solar energy in the closed piping system. The profile for thermal relief valve including relieving capacity, influx heat energy, sizing criteria, set pressure, selection against back pressure is also presented. It is noted that following topic on solar relief valve should be applied to engineering, installation and commissioning.

This study carried out the safety evaluation of non-refillable butane can for portable gas range equipped with relief valve for prevention of explosion. The can is heated by electric heater at the real using condition and the extreme condition after installing at a portable gas range for checking the operating pressure and the evaluating suitability of releasing flux. And the possibility of fire or explosion was tested when the gas was released from the relief valve at the real condition. As a result of this safety evaluation test, a non-refillable butane can with relief valve prevents the can from exploding by control of internal pressure.

A safety relief valve is a device that relieves excessive pressure in piping lines or tanks and maintains pressure at the appropriate pressure level for use. The (pressure in the) safety valve is directly influenced by the change in the back pressure, depending on whether the vents in the spring bonnet are vented to the atmosphere or to the outlet. The back pressure is divided into the built-up back pressure and the superimposed back pressure, and the back pressure characteristics vary according to the usage conditions. The safety valve used in this study is a Conventional Safety Relief Valve. The blowdown of the safety valve is predicted by establishing the equilibrium equation between the opening force and spring force considering the back pressure characteristics. Its reliability is secured by using CFX17.1. In addition, the safety of the safety valve trim was examined through fluid-structure interaction analysis.

We have developed a new relief valve which is a safety device for the domestic gas-fired hot water boilers. The relief valve has been designed to expand the inner diameter of the inlet, the outlet and the seat of the valve considering the relief capacity, and also to separate the spring from the room heating water. Therefore, we could minimize the adhesion and/or obstruction of the inlet and the corrosion phenomena of the spring which used to be the problem of the conventional relief valves. Test results of the developed relief valve showed that the performance of the opening pressure, reseating pressure, tightness, endurance were excellent, and the operating boiler with developed relief valve was evaluated as very good. The standardization and application of the relief valve can provide the advantage of component exchange and easy maintenance and repair.

In the last five years, 91 accidents from portable gas ranges and non-refillable metallic gas cartridges have occurred. The gas cylinder installed with a relief valve was developed to prevent an explosive accident from the gas cartridge. In this study it was carried out to evaluate the safety of a gas cylinder mounted with a relief valve which can prevent an explosion. Under the real using condition and the extreme condition the gas cylinder is heated with an electric heater. Simultaneously, the operating pressure is checked and the suitability of releasing flux is evaluated. And the possibility of fire or explosion was tested when the gas was released from the relief valve at the real using condition. Using a numerical simulation method, the diffusion of butane gas released from a relief valve was visualized.
