API Std 650 liquid storage tanks load combinations

The design metal temperature of API Std 650 liquid 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.

The calculated thickness of the above-mentioned wall panels required by the hydrostatic pressure is also It API Std 650 liquid storage tanks should be increased by the same ratio, unless special analysis is performed to determine the seismic overturning moment and the corresponding stress at the bottom of the wall of each layer of API 650 tank.

In January, 2019, our South Africa customer purchased 669 tons S235J2+N carbon steel plates to use in their tank fabrication project . S235J2 steel, as a non-alloy structural steel grade, is mainly used in structural projects and tanks. J2 symbol -20 temperature impact test. The client required CEV 0.38%, S≤0.01%, 100% UT, Charpy V-notch impact test at-20℃, Z25 for S235J2+N plates. After they receiving the S235J2+N steel plates, the customer are very satisfied with the quality of this batch of API Std 650 liquid storage tanks products.

Volatilization is the characteristic of oil. Under normal temperature and pressure, as long as the oil is in contact with air, the surface will volatilize. Through scientific analysis and summary, the causes of oil volatilization loss in API Std 650 liquid storage tanks are: natural ventilation loss, static storage loss, dynamic liquid level loss. In the use of API Std 650 liquid storage tanks, static storage loss and dynamic liquid level loss are common losses.

Through the operation and management, brand advantage and improve pre-sales, sale of after-sales service, the efforts of the company into the industry leading enterprises.Relying on perfect quality management system, it has built up competition predominance and provided high quality, favorable price and perfect after service for customers.
