# Relief System Designer Skill

## Purpose

The Relief System Designer Skill designs pressure relief systems including PSV sizing, relief load calculations, and disposal system design per API standards.

## Capabilities

- Relief scenario identification
- Relief load calculations
- PSV sizing (API 520/521)
- Flare header hydraulics
- Blowdown system design
- Two-phase relief calculations
- Reactive systems relief
- Relief device selection

## Usage Guidelines

### When to Use
- Designing pressure relief systems
- Sizing relief devices
- Analyzing flare headers
- Evaluating relief scenarios

### Prerequisites
- Process conditions defined
- Relief scenarios identified
- Physical properties available
- Design codes specified

### Best Practices
- Consider all credible scenarios
- Use appropriate methods for two-phase
- Account for backpressure
- Document all assumptions

## Process Integration

This skill integrates with:
- Pressure Relief System Design
- Safety Instrumented System Design
- HAZOP Study Facilitation
