API Std 650 stainless and carbon steel tank design factors

When the API Std 650 stainless and carbon steel tank top shell course is the minimum thickness indicated in 5.10.4, Table 5-6 and Figure 5-6, details a – e, h and i, the minimum anchorage shall be designed for normal loads as specified by the Purchaser and by this standard. See 5.11.2.3 for the allowable stress. When the top shell course is thickened beyond the minimum thickness provided in Table 5-6 or as in Figure 5-6, details f and g, or a knuckle is used, the minimum anchorage shall be designed for three times the internal design pressure. The allowable stress for this loading is 90% of the minimum specified yield strength of anchorage material.Under the same sealing effect, the internal floating roof tank of API 650 oil storage tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the API Std 650 stainless and carbon steel tank External floating roof tank. This is due to the shielding of the fixed roof and the gas layer between the fixed roof and the internal floating plate, which has more significant heat insulation effect than the double disc floating roof of the API Std 650 stainless and carbon steel tank external floating roof tank.Bangladesh is an important market to us. We cooperated with the National Railway, the National Tubes Limited (NTL) and so on state-owned enterprises. They have tenders regularly. And we would participate the tenders with our local agents. We have been the winner of NTL tenders for many times. API 5L grade B steel strips are their needed API Std 650 stainless and carbon steel tank materials. They have special chemical composition, tolerance and so on requirements. We can fully meet their demands and guarantee timely delivery.The most popular standards for API Std 650 stainless and carbon steel tank are API Std 650, JIS B8501, BS2654, GB50341, etc. The formulas used in each standard are derived from the hoop stress calculation formula of membrane theory. Combined with the stress characteristics of API Std 650 stainless and carbon steel tank, plus the allowable stress, weld coefficient and additional wall thickness, the wall thickness calculation formula is complete. The allowable stress and weld coefficient are determined according to the material performance characteristics and construction technology level of each country. According to different API Std 650 stainless and carbon steel tank standards, the calculation results of tank wall thickness are sometimes quite different.Respect customers and treat each other sincerely. Customers are always right. Always remember that the user is the God of the enterprise, respect the customer, and accept the customer's opinion modestly is the guarantee of the long-term development of the enterprise. Adhere to this concept, so that the service and the product are the same, long-term.
