API 650 carbon steel storage tanks structural shapes

How to effectively increase the service life of API 650 carbon steel storage tanks oil tanks? It is necessary to check and inspect the oil tank regularly in the process of use, and do a good job in the maintenance and cleaning of the oil tank. The oil tank should be inspected every 6 years. With the increase of service life, the inspection interval should be shortened. Daily maintenance and cleaning of the API 650 carbon steel storage tanks can prolong the service life of the oil tank. The maintenance of the API 650 carbon steel storage tanks mainly includes the anti-corrosion inspection of the oil tank, the maintenance of the accessories, and the cleaning of the sediment in the tank.In this project, the area of tank wall used is of the same construction, material, and geometry as that described in F.1.3.1 except that the thickness of the plate is 3/8 in. The wall is stressed in the same manner as is described in F.1.3.1. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 8000 lbf/in.2.
The problem in this example is to find the maximum allowable (latitudinal) compressive stress value for the given conditions, in conformance with the provisions of API 620 tank standard 5.5.4.5.
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R in this situation is R1, or 75 in.This API 650 tank standard does not present orstablish a fixed series of allowable tank sizes: instead, it s intended to permit the purchaser to select whatever size API 650 carbon steel storage tanks tank may best meet his needs.[Enterprise Spirit]: professional, honest, dedicated and innovative.[Enterprise Tenet]: provide customers with satisfactory steel products and services.[Enterprise Policy]: customer satisfaction is our pursuit.
