5154 aluminum plate API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks

The design metal temperature of API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks each component exposed to the liquid or vapor being stored shall be the lower of the following:
a)The minimum temperature to which the tank contents will be refrigerated, including the effect of subcooling at reduced pressure.
b)The minimum metal temperature anticipated when the atmospheric temperature is below the refrigerated temperature (see 4.2.1). The effectiveness of the insulation in keeping the metal temperature above the expected minimum atmospheric temperature shall be considered.

API 650 petroleum storage tank body design is mainly the design of tank bottom, API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks tank top and tank wall, and the design of tank wall is particularly important. As the main pressure bearing part of API 650 petroleum storage tank, the tank wall bears loads including liquid pressure, wind pressure, seismic load, opening stress, etc. The calculation of such loads is explained in detail in various API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks storage tank design standards. But in addition, the API 650 petroleum storage tank wall also bears the push-pull force and torque of the connected pipeline.

Storage tank is used to store all kinds of liquid, solid and gas materials. The common types of storage tank are oil tank, water storage tank, chemical tank, cement tank, API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks, etc. When choosing the storage tank, users should choose according to their actual needs, such as the material, pressure, form, capacity, temperature, density, etc. In addition, the environmental factors such as the temperature of the tank construction area, the ground endurance of the foundation, and the wind force should be considered.
