Reliability Analysis of Pressure Relief Valve

Pressure relief valve (PRY) is a reclosing-type pressure relief device. Pressure Relief Devices are used to protect pressurized equipment from exceeding the maximum allowable working pressure. PRD is considered as the "last line of defense" to save human lives and property. Therefore, i...
