Self-supporting cone roof API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks

Corrosion allowance, if specified, shall be added to calculated API 650 tanks shell and self-supporting roof thicknesses; to minimum nominal thicknesses of bottom and supported API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks roof plates; to nozzles and manholes; and to all exposed surfaces of internal structural members and non-removable internals.

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 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks are: natural ventilation loss, static storage loss, dynamic liquid level loss. In the use of API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks, static storage loss and dynamic liquid level loss are common losses.

Uplift on Foundation
For API Standard 620 tanks with an internal design pressure less than 1 lbf/in.2 gauge, the uplift shall be taken as the smaller of the maximum uplift values computed under the following conditions:
a)The internal design pressure times 1.5 plus the design wind load on the shell and roof.
b)The internal design pressure plus 0.25 lbf/in.2 gauge plus the design wind load on the shell and roof.

The company regularly holds sales elites to share experiences, to promote the rapid growth of colleagues, and achieve the company and employees.
