API 650 ambient temperature tanks roof
The tank 20-in. inside-diameter nozzle shown in Figure F-6 is located in solid plate in the sidewall of a cylindrical storage tank 148 ft in diameter in an area where the thickness of the wall plate, tw, is 11/2 in. A corrosion allowance of 0.10 in. is required on all surfaces of the tank exposed to the stored liquid. The total internal pressure, Pl + Pg, at the center of the opening is 24.9 lbf/in.2 gauge. The thickness of the API 650 ambient temperature tanks wall plate, t, required by 5.10.3 for the latitudinal unit forces, T2, acting at this level is 1.44 in.
The API 650 ambient temperature tanks most widely used and most commonly used standard for global storage tank construction and procurement is API 650. The Chinese translation name is "AP1650 Steel Welded Petroleum Storage Tank". API 650 storage tank is for commonly used oil, gasoline, diesel, chemical and production water storage, etc.
The elastic filling and sealing of floating roof API 650 ambient temperature tanks is to fill the elastic and changeable objects in the sealed envelope, and the sealing purpose depends on the compression deformation of the filler. This kind of sealing effect is good, the requirement of the geometry of tank wall is not too high, and the adaptability is strong. However, the elastic filling and sealing has poor wear resistance and is easy to deform and damage in long-term use.
