| Matrix Flares (Staged At Base) |
|
Smokeless turn-down is enhanced by staging the flow to the unit. This ensures that the minimum of
burners are in operation at any time, keeping the pressure in the operational stage high enough to
provide sufficient turbulence so that the flare will be smokeless throughout its entire operating
range.
A typical large matrix flare will have from 6 to 8 stages, using fast-acting, tight shut-off butterfly
valves with rupture disk bypass to divert gas to each successive stage.
