Hello everyone, I work in pressure vessel design. I’ve received a quotation like this and don’t know where to start; I hope those experienced in this field can help me. The details are as follows: Medium: edible oil (Jinlongyu blended oil); Temperature: room temperature; Pressure: atmospheric pressure; Material: 0CR18ni9; Weight: 30 tons. I have no idea how to proceed, so I’m seeking advice from everyone here.
What’s there that one doesn’t know how to approach? First, find out what the density of the blended oil is approximately, and determine the volume of the container. Since the operation takes place at atmospheric pressure and the quantity involved is not small, it’s best to use a cylindrical container with a flat bottom. Then, determine an appropriate height-to-diameter ratio based on that volume
The poster can refer to JB/T4735-1997 \"Steel Welded Atmospheric Pressure Vessels\"
You can take a look at the oil tank catalog; it’s available online. It is quite detailed; the design can be used as a reference.

The original poster is asking about quotes, everyone! Let me give it a try: use a 32-liter flat-bottomed tank, with a diameter of 3000, a height of 4400, and a cone tip height of 300; made of 304 material, with a total wall thickness of 5 mm. (Let’s calculate again) The total weight is around 2 tons. The unit price is 30,000 per ton, with a total cost of 60,000. Those who have different opinions please speak up.

What if it is a horizontal container? The main problem is that the filling factor for food oil storage tanks is unknown. And the density of Jinlongyu oil.
