API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks metal-seated ball valve

The effect of air pressure on the API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks tank walls of the API 650 tank must be considered when the design pressure is greater than 2 kPa.The fixed point method can be used to design the tank wall of atmospheric or micro internal pressure API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks storage tank.

In this project, an elemental area of tank wall used is constructed of ASTM A442 Grade 55 steel plate subjected to a meridional unit force, T1, of 4000 lbf/in.2 tension and a latitudinal unit force, T2, of 5060 lbf/in.2 compression. The meridional radius of curvature, R1, is 75 in., and the length of the normal from the surface to the axis of revolution, R2, is 300 in. The joints in the wall are of double-welded butt-joint construction with a tensile efficiency of 85%. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required.
The problem in this example is to graphically find the minimum thickness of tank wall required for the given conditions (see 5.10.3.3).
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A442 Grade 55 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.

Comparison of the quality of mechanical cleaning and manual cleaning of vertical storage tanks, API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks. The mechanical cleaning of the API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks can make the inside of the tank be thoroughly cleaned in multiple directions, and the cleaning quality is high, and the cleaned oil does not contain lumpy impurities. While the walls and roof of the API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks cannot be cleaned in multiple directions during manual cleaning, and the cleaning quality is not easy to be guaranteed. The oily sewage collected after cleaning usually contains a lot of lumpy impurities, and these oil products are difficult to clean.

Advanced typical figures and typical deeds are the embodiment and symbol of API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks enterprise spirit, outstanding ideas and vivid images, with strong demonstration, radiation and transmission effect. Without distinctive typical characters, there is no unique enterprise culture. In carrying out the construction of enterprise culture, the advanced enterprise culture should be typified. Vigorously excavate, discover, cultivate and summarize the company's API standard 650 aboveground petroleum storage tanks advanced models.
