Urgent! Regarding the calculation method for determining the discharge volume of spherical tanks at different pressures and temperatures!

When the liquid level in the spherical tank remains constant but the temperature rises (from 25°C to 35°C) and the pressure increases, in order to prevent the safety valve from activating and forcing discharge to the flare, how should the amount of discharge be calculated? (The pressure is reduced from 1MPA to 0.9MPA)
I’m not quite sure what your question is. “To prevent the safety valve from activating, it is necessary to discharge gas into the flare system” – why is it necessary to calculate the amount of gas that needs to be discharged? Can’t you calculate the amount by which the volume increases when the temperature of the medium inside the spherical tank rises?
Yin Shuopeng, what is the operating pressure for this spherical tank? Is it necessary to release pressure when it reaches 10 kilograms? How long does it take for the temperature of this tank to rise from 25 degrees to 35 degrees? Is nitrogen present inside the tank?
