I have a question: Should the inlet and outlet buffer tanks of reciprocating machines be designed as fatigue-resistant containers? Where are the relevant regulations? It seems that API618 does not contain any relevant regulations on this matter. I earnestly ask all the experts for their guidance!

No one replied, so I’ll reply myself to prevent it from getting ignored.

The size is determined according to 618, and it is designed in accordance with GB150; fatigue design has not been heard of yet

Cracks appeared in the buffer tank of a reciprocating machine in one device, and it was suggested that such buffer tanks should be designed as fatigue-resistant containers. But no relevant regulations could be found.
