API Std 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks vacuum breakers

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.The welded API 650 tank in various sizes and capacities for internal pressures approximating atmospheric pressure (internal pressures not exceeding the weight of the roof plates), but a higher internal pressure API Std 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks is permitted when additional requirements are met.LSAW Pipe to Peru. In the beginning of 2014, Peru government released an international tender for one of the hydroelectric power plant. Finally they chose us as the contractor, we purchased the steel plate and then fabricate the API Std 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks steel plate into steel pipe, and then make the corrosion protect on the surface, we also supply the fitting with our steel plate, the total value of this order is about 2 million USD.Due to the volatility of oil products, the volatile consumption of oil products is inevitable in the storage process of large oil storage tanks such as API Std 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks. The volatilization of oil causes economic losses and pollution to the environment. Especially in the open air environment, large-scale oil storage tanks in the petrochemical industry will continue to accumulate energy when exposed to the sun, causing their surface and interior to heat up rapidly, causing sun overheating, and accelerating the volatilization of oil. How to effectively reduce the volatile consumption of large oil storage tanks?We are willing to cooperate sincerely with you with high-quality API Std 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks products and sincere service to expand the market and create brilliant! We will work hard to create a first-class steel company and provide you with faster and more considerate after-sales services! Moreover, our shipbuilding steel plates have been certified by the nine countries' classification societies including DNV, ABC, GL, LR, BV, CCS, RINA, NK, and KR. The quality assurance system has passed ISO9001-2000 standard certification.
