ASTM A537 plates API Std 650 SUG III tanks
The hot weather in summer brings great security challenges to the vertical oil storage tanks, API Std 650 SUG III tanks standing outdoors. We must find some simple and effective methods to protect the API Std 650 SUG III tanks in order to make them safely spend the summer. As a API Std 650 SUG III tanks manufacturer, in order to reduce the direct sunlight rate of the vertical oil tank, reduce the temperature change of the oil tank, and reduce the evaporation loss of the oil tank, we usually adopt the measures of applying sunscreen paint and washing with warm water.In this project, an elemental area of API 620 oil storage tank wall is constructed of ASTM A516 Grade 55 steel plate subjected to a meridional unit force, T1, of 2620 lbf/in. tension and a latitudinal unit force, T2, of 2880 lbf/in. compression. The meridional radius of curvature, R1, is 132 in., and the length of the normal from the surface to the axis of revolution, R2, is 409 in. The joints in the wall are spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints, and no corrosion allowance is required.The problem in this example is to graphically find the minimum thickness of tank wall required for the given conditions (see API 620 tank standard 5.10.3.3).Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum, allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A516 Grade 55 steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R for this situation is R1, or 132 in.API 650 is the standard for welded tanks for oil storage. It specifies the API Std 650 SUG III tanks design, manufacturing, welding, inspection and installation requirements of oil tanks. API 650 is widely used in storage tanks with internal pressure less than or equal to 2.5 PSI.Insist on the spirit of development and indomitable entrepreneurship; the spirit of leading science and technology and striving for first-class affairs; the spirit of strict management and market development; the spirit of taking the lead in setting an example and selfless dedication; and the spirit of people-oriented and enterprise ownership.The boiler steel plates are among our main products.
