Atmospheric pressure storage tank issues
Thread Content
A batch of storage tanks is currently being bid for; some are designed with upper and lower heads along with legs, while others have a flat bottom and conical top. The capacity of each tank is 60 cubic meters. What are the advantages and disadvantages of these two types of storage tanks?
Typically, atmospheric pressure storage tanks have a flat bottom and a conical top, which is more economical than the former.
Designed according to process requirements, it is equipped with legs for easy discharge.
The former can be moved, but the tank is thick; it is not economical to move the equipment if there is no need to do so； The latter can have a thinner wall thickness, but it is not suitable for transfer positions.
A flat bottom is not required for easy discharge; those that require discharge use models with legs, and the lower end cap is a conical cap
1. Structural issues must meet the process requirements. 2. Do not confuse the concept of atmospheric pressure vessels; check the definition of atmospheric pressure vessels. A normal-pressure vessel for NBT47003 is a pressurized vessel; that is, a vessel that is not under pressure, as well as a vacuum (or externally pressurized) vessel, is not considered a normal-pressure vessel. A flat-bottomed container is pressure-free and in direct contact with the atmosphere; it only takes into account the static pressure of the liquid stored within it. A flat-bottomed container does not qualify as a pressure vessel in our definition
