API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks vertical shell joints

The lip seal of floating roof storage tank, API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks relies on the sliding contact between elastic lip and tank wall. This kind of seal has strong applicability, but the requirements of manufacturing technology and material selection are high, and the determination of elastic seal also exists. The secondary seal of floating roof storage tank, API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks is to add a seal on the basis of primary seal. It is proved by experiments that the secondary seal can reduce the liquid consumption by more than 50%, and has a more significant effect in safety.

The pressed-steel, round manhole with a 20-in. inside diameter shown in Figure F-8 is located in API 620 crude oil tank solid plate in spherical portion of a torispherical roof on a cylindrical storage tank 72 ft in diameter. The internal pressure, Pg, on the underside of the roof is 15 lbf/in.2 gauge. The thickness, t, of the roof plate required by 5.10.3 for the spherical portion of the roof is 1/2 in., which is exactly the thickness provided. No corrosion allowance is required. The materials in the oil tank roof plates and manhole frame conform to ASTM A283 Grade C steel; the main joints in the roof are double-welded butt joints, spot radiographed in accordance with 7.16 and 7.17.

According to API 650 tanks, anchoring devices should be designed to transfer overturning moments to the API 650 flexible liquid storage tanks tank foundation. At the same time, according to API 650 tank Appendix F, when the tank is to be anchored, the size of the anchoring parts is determined by the maximum lifting force caused by the internal pressure and wind load or the combination of internal pressure and seismic load.
