The issue of test pressure for horizontal, atmospheric-pressure liquid storage tanks

2009-04-13View Original

Thread Content

Question: The operating pressure for a flat-bottomed, atmospheric-pressure liquid storage tank is 16 KPA, but the pressure used for testing must not exceed 1.5 KPA. Why is that? Thank you!

Regarding the colleague’s question, it might relate to low-temperature liquid storage tanks. I answered that for gas pressure testing, 1.15 times the pressure should be used, but they said that was incorrect; I’m confused as well, so I’m posting this for advice.

It’s probably considering the weight of the liquid
