In the petrochemical industry and other industries, large vertical API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks are often used to store various production raw materials. Usually, the medium with high melting point and easy to crystallize at room temperature can be exported and used after heating, which involves the heating of large vertical storage tanks. The heating system is an auxiliary facility for heating of large vertical storage tank. It is often necessary to design external heating coil or internal heating coil system.

Preheating should be performed by heating and maintaining this heat in appreciable lengths of the joint to be welded, preferably using a strip burner with a mild flame rather than a harsh flame such as that from a cutting torch. Electrical strip heaters are available and have been found to be satisfactory. The preheat of 300°F should be checked with a temperature-sensitive crayon, or similarly accurate means, so that the steel 4 in. (or four times the API 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks plate thickness, whichever is greater) on each side of the joint will be maintained at the minimum preheat temperature. Ring burners or heaters are recommended for nozzle and manway welds. At no time during the welding should the base metal fall below a temperature of 300°F.
