API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks thermal stress relief

High temperature heat transfer oil fin tube heating device for large API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks has the advantage of high heat transfer efficiency. The high-temperature heat-conducting oil finned tube heating device adopts high-efficiency outer finned tubes. The outer finned tube coils are immersed in a water bath. Compared with ordinary light tubes, the contact area between the evaporation coils and the medium is increased. The total heat transfer coefficient of the coil is determined by the heat transfer coefficient outside the tube. This increases the heat flux per unit tube length and improves the overall heat transfer efficiency.

Determination of Required Capacity
The aggregate capacities required for any vent valves, pressure-relieving valves, and/or vacuum-relieving valves to be provided should be determined as follows:
a)For thermal breathing and product movement, the rules given in API 2000 shall be followed. The required capacity as the result of the product movement into the tank API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks given in API 2000, shall be multiplied by the ratio of the absolute tank pressure to atmospheric pressure (14.7 lbf/in.2 absolute).
b)For supplemental safety pressure-relieving devices to take care of extra venting capacity required in case of external fire exposure, the rules in API 2000 shall be followed.

API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are generally called external floating roof API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks tanks, which means that the storage tanks are externally open tanks without a dome design, and are equipped with vertical floating roofs. API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are usually used for large More than 20,000 cubic meters of open steel API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks storage tanks for storing volatile petroleum products such as crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, etc.
