This post was last edited by zhengxue on 2017-2-24 at 16:02. Case images: Due to extreme temperature changes, rapid drops in temperature and large temperature ranges. A large vacuum often forms inside the storage tank due to temperature changes, and such a vacuum can cause the tank to suddenly collapse. A 55-gallon closed tank containing 1/3 of warm water at 60°C (140°F). The storage tank was covered in snow, causing the temperature inside it to drop rapidly. A vacuum is formed inside the tank, and the storage tank reaches a critical point. Atmospheric pressure compresses and deforms the storage tank until it dents.

The vacuum in the gasoline tank is definitely not working.

Why isn’t it insulated? What’s the purpose of such a tight seal?

This is an experiment designed to prove that a large temperature difference creates a vacuum. That is the purpose.

Regardless of whether the tank is large or small, the vacuum resulting from temperature changes remains constant. We want to prove through an experiment that vacuum cannot be ignored.
