Dear forum members, I have a question regarding gas tanks. For the design pressure of a gas holder, must the pressure of the gas entering it be greater than the weight of the holder itself in order to lift it? 9.81×(MW structure)/S = P; let P_water be the floating force due to water and P_air be the floating force due to air. However, this formula seems to indicate that the design pressure is significantly lower than the weight of the gas tank itself. So I would like to ask, if the pressure exceeds the design pressure, what is the reason for that? Was the inlet pressure not taken into account?
The intake pressure is approximately equal to the design pressure
The gas holder maintains a constant pressure, and the counterweight is generally adjusted according to the design pressure. Excessive pressure is a configuration issue: handshake
Great master, have you passed the chemical engineer exam?
Bro, is it possible to add you on WeChat? I’ve always had a question that I can’t resolve. If the gas holder can rise, does that mean the inlet pressure is greater than that of the breeding bell jar? Does the gas holder buffer pressure changes by rising?
If the pressure in the gas pipeline is too high, exceeding the water seal pressure of the flare water seal tank, it will inevitably cause some excess gas to enter the flare, thereby preventing the pressure in the gas holder from becoming excessively high. Additionally, the gas holder is equipped with instruments that allow for monitoring and controlling its height and pressure, thereby preventing accidents.
