Need help with PVC storage tank pressure?
Thread Content
Who can provide design data for PVC storage tanks? For example, I want to design a 10m³ PVC storage tank (barrel-shaped). The density of the liquid is close to water. How should I design the diameter and height to make it safer?
Reasonable selection should be made based on the site location, the aspect ratio of the equipment, and the wall thickness of the equipment.
PVC storage tanks are generally called silos and can be designed as normal pressure vessels. The apparent density of PVC is generally 0.5~0.6. The single unit storage tank is a pressure vessel. The design pressure is generally 0.6 MPa. The unit density is generally 0.9~0.95. I wonder what kind of container you want to design?
