Anchorage design for API 650 open top welded storage tanks
Under the same sealing effect, the internal API 650 open top welded storage tanks floating roof API 650 tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the external floating roof API 650 tank. This is due to the shielding of the fixed roof and the gas phase layer between the fixed roof and the inner floating plate, which has more significant heat insulation effect than the double disc floating roof of the API 650 open top welded storage tanks external floating roof tank.
In this project, an elemental area of API 620 oil storage tank wall is constructed of ASTM A516 Grade 55 steel plate subjected to a meridional unit force, T1, of 2620 lbf/in. tension and a latitudinal unit force, T2, of 2880 lbf/in. compression. The meridional radius of curvature, R1, is 132 in., and the length of the normal from the surface to the axis of revolution, R2, is 409 in. The joints in the wall are spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints, and no corrosion allowance is required.The problem in this example is to graphically find the minimum thickness of tank wall required for the given conditions (see API 620 tank standard 5.10.3.3).Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum, allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A516 Grade 55 steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R for this situation is R1, or 132 in.
API 650 open top welded storage tanks belongs to metal oil tank. Metal oil tank is a kind of vessel made by welding steel plate. The common shapes of metal tank are vertical metal tank, horizontal metal tank and spherical metal tank. The advantages of API 650 open top welded storage tanks etc. metal oil tank are good sealing, not easy to leak, can be installed with heating and insulation function, metal tank can withstand high internal pressure, large vertical metal tank such as API 650 open top welded storage tanks also has the characteristics of small floor space and large storage capacity.
Safety production is the cornerstone of enterprise survival and development. The company established a safety management network, which achieved clear powers and responsibilities, clear responsibilities, effective management and control, and provided organizational guarantee for safe production. The company strictly complies with the "Environmental Protection Law", establishes an effective environmental protection emission control system and waste gas, waste water, waste solid recycling system, and makes great efforts to harden, lighten, green, and beautify the plant, and strive to build green steel enterprises.
The company uses outsourced logistics operations. Our cooperated professional third-party logistics providers use the advantages of large-scale production and cost advantages to achieve cost savings by increasing the utilization of resources in each link, so that we can benefit from the separation of cost structure. Therefore, we can also provide customers with better, faster and more efficient cargo transportation, delivery, and lower freight costs.
