API Std 650 petroleum storage tanks shell plates

The main types of metal storage tanks are vertical dome roof tank, vertical external floating roof tank, vertical inner floating roof tank, spherical oil tank and horizontal oil storage tank. API Std 650 petroleum storage tanks is vertical tank. The capacity of vertical dome roof oil storage tank is generally less than 10000 cubic meters. The wall plate adopts sleeve type fillet weld, and it is usually installed by inverted or forward installation method during construction.In this project, an area of tank wall is constructed of ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate that is 5/8-in. thick and has spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The wall is subject to tension in a meridional direction and to compression in a latitudinal direction. The values of R1 and R2 at the point under consideration are 75 in. and 300 in. respectively. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 6000 lbf/in.2.
The problem in this example is to find the maximum allowable (latitudinal) compressive stress value for the given conditions, in conformance with the provisions of API 620 tank standard 5.5.4.5.Compared with the fixed roof API 650 oil storage tank without API Std 650 petroleum storage tanks floating roof, there is no evaporation space. In principle, this eliminates the so-called "large breathing loss". Evaporation not only causes the loss of product quantity, but also affects the quality of API Std 650 petroleum storage tanks product and pollutes the environment.Aspire to technological innovation and pursue first-class quality steel API Std 650 petroleum storage tanks products.Take independent innovation as an important support for the sustainable development of iron and steel industry, strengthen the main position of technological innovation, accelerate the original innovation, integrated innovation, introduction, digestion, absorption and re innovation, improve the technological innovation system, and cultivate the core technology and brand products of independent intellectual property rights.The company has accumulated rich experience in long-term cooperation with new and old customers, which makes our products API Std 650 petroleum storage tanks more unique in the same industry, and is favored and praised by users. We always adhere to the enterprise spirit of "integrity, dedication, and people-oriented" and the business philosophy of "creating benefits for users".
