Maximum design temperature of API 650 storage tank

API 650 internal floating roof oil tank executive standard: domestic design standard: GB50341-2003 "Vertical cylindrical steel welded oil tank design code"; domestic construction standard: GB50128-2005 "vertical cylindrical steel welded oil tank" Construction and Acceptance Specification; API 650 storage tank Foreign design standard: API650-2007 "Standard for Welded Steel Petroleum Storage Tanks."

Thickness as it Affects Preheat and Post-heat Requirements
Plate with thicknesses below 1/2 in. is reasonably notch tough. In most steels, when the API 650 storage tank used plate thickness exceeds 3/4 in. – 1 in., notch toughness, particularly as welded, decreases sharply. The decrease in notch toughness can be minimized by the conventional post-heat treatment and, in many steels, by preheat treatment. The benefits of preheat treatment in steels 3/4 in. – 1 in. thick have been demonstrated; similar benefits could be expected in thicker steels, but sufficient experimental data are currently lacking.

The structure of the API 650 storage tank foundation mainly includes the insulating anticorrosion layer on the top surface of the foundation, the tank wall support, the edge retaining structure, the sand cushion, the oil and water barrier, the detection signal tube and other structures. The construction materials and requirements of each basic structure of the storage tank are different. After the structure of the API 650 storage tank foundation is built in accordance with the construction requirements, the settlement of the storage tank foundation needs to be observed, and the uneven settlement value of the storage tank foundation should be within the allowable safety range.
