120ft diameter API standard 650 tanks
Design of a Double-wall TankThe outer bottom, shell, and roof of a double-wall tank shall enclose an insulating space around the bottom, shell, and roof or insulation deck of the inner tank that contains the stored liquid. The annular space shall be maintained at a low positive pressure, which necessitates that the enclosure be vapor-tight. The Purchaser shall specify the design metal temperature and pressure of the inner tank and may specify the design temperature and pressure of the outer tank API standard 650 tanks. The Purchaser shall state the specific gravity of the content to be stored, roof live loads, wind load, earthquake load where applicable, and corrosion allowance, if any.
The seismic effects on the tank wall of API 650 oil storage tank include the inertia moment generated by the weight of the API standard 650 tanks tank and the hydrodynamic pressure of the reservoir, which can be divided into short period pulse pressure and long period fluid slopping convective pressure.
The API standard 650 tanks must go through strict inspection before putting into use. Inspection of plate groove of API standard 650 tanks, vertical oil tank: After finishing the groove processing of oil tank plate, it is necessary to conduct dye penetrant inspection on the groove. This process is mainly aimed at the hard damage of groove in the machining process and the defects of the plate itself. If any defect is found, it shall be processed again until the defect disappears.
