Transient Vibration Guidelines for Fast Acting Valves Screening Assessment

This report sets out the theory and screening methods to assess piping local to fast acting gas, liquid and multiphase valves.

The output from the screening is a Likelihood of Failure (LOF) term that when used in conjunction with the small bore screening assessment in the MTD Guidelines provides a risk rating for a connection.

The risk can then be mitigated against by applying the recommended modifications outline in the MTD document.
