ReliefValve Class

Represents a safety relief valve (PSV / PRV) unit operation that opens progressively between a set-point pressure and a fully-opened pressure, relieving fluid to a downstream line. The orifice area, discharge coefficient, and back-pressure corrections follow API 520 / ASME Section VIII methodology.
