API standard 650 open-top tanks size
Strictly controlling the temperature in the API standard 650 open-top tanks can effectively reduce the volatile consumption of oil in large oil storage tanks. Because the higher the temperature in the oil storage tank, the stronger the activity of oil molecules and the greater the volatilization consumption of the oil. Therefore, the temperature in the API standard 650 open-top tanks must be reduced as much as possible. It is possible to reduce the direct sunlight temperature by painting white anticorrosive paint with good light reflectivity. It is also possible to use spray equipment to wash the top and wall of the API standard 650 open-top tanks with water flow to reduce the volatilization consumption of the oil in the storage tank.
The materials used in the construction of Appendix Q oil tanks may be subject to severe pitting, cracking, or rusting if they are exposed to contaminated test water for extended periods of time. The Purchaser shall specify a minimum quality of test water that conforms to Q.8.3.2 through Q.8.3.8. After the water test is completed, the tank API standard 650 open-top tanks shall be promptly drained, cleaned, and dried.
API 650 storage tank stipulates that if the thickness of the lower wall panel obtained by calculating the anti-overturning moment is greater than the thickness of the API standard 650 open-top tanks hydrostatic pressure test (both do not include the corrosion allowance).
