There are two ways to calculate refined oil. The first is the turnover coefficient method to determine the tank capacity. The second is the storage days method. Which one should be chosen during general design? There are two other methods that have experience values. When designing, should we just use experience values, or should we use formulas to calculate them specifically? Please give some advice?
I think the first method is more reliable, and of course it would be better to have a certain remainder to control it.
There are many factors to consider when determining the capacity of an oil depot, including the type and tasks of the oil depot, the difficulty of sourcing oil products, the scope of oil product supply, the change patterns of supply and demand, and the transportation conditions for incoming and outgoing oil products. Sometimes it is also closely related to the changing situation of the international oil market. The methods to determine the capacity of oil storage include turnover coefficient method and storage days method. Civil aviation airport oil depots should comply with the requirements of the "Technical Specifications for the Construction of Civil Airport Oil Supply Projects" (MHJ 5008-2005). The capacity of military oil depots should be determined in accordance with relevant military regulations. Commercial oil depots generally use the turnover coefficient method, and petrochemical enterprise storage and transportation system projects generally use the storage days method to calculate oil tank capacity.
This issue is mainly considered during the feasibility study, and market analysis is used as the basis for project application.
I strongly agree that "commercial oil depots generally use the turnover coefficient method, and petrochemical enterprise storage and transportation system projects generally use the storage days method to calculate oil tank capacity." If a commercial oil depot is a business operation, considering the economic benefits, a larger turnover coefficient is generally used to reduce storage capacity and investment. However, the reference range of the turnover coefficient is larger. In addition to being affected by market analysis, it is also subject to human influence. How dare you disobey the leader! The storage and transportation system of a petrochemical enterprise is only a link in the buffering and turnover of materials between devices. It has little influence from external conditions and has relevant specifications for reference, making it easier to characterize.
