API standard 650 cylindrical welded storage tanks roof and top angle joints

To scientifically evaluate the remaining service life of the API standard 650 cylindrical welded storage tanks, it is necessary to know the thickness change and development trend of the storage tank sheet after long-term use, combined with the metal characteristics of the storage tank, the influence of various external conditions and the continuous change of the oil pressure in the API standard 650 cylindrical welded storage tanks, etc. factors to judge. Because the metal characteristics, corrosion defects, load and other numerical parameters of the API standard 650 cylindrical welded storage tanks are randomly changed, the value of the remaining service life of the storage tank will also be dynamic.

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 standard 650 cylindrical welded 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.

Tanks which are designed following rules and guidelines of API 650 are API 650 tanks. API 650 API standard 650 cylindrical welded storage tanks is the governing code for Welded tanks for Oil storage normally operating in the atmospheric pressure range. The code API 650 provides guidelines for design, fabrication, material, erection, and inspection of welded vertical and cylindrical storage tanks. Such API standard 650 cylindrical welded storage tanks Tanks must be above ground with a closed or open top.
