Storage tank breather design
Thread Content
Material storage tank, with a diameter of 5 meters and a height of 6 meters; the inflow rate into the tank is 40 t/hr. A breather is designed for this tank, and its design flow rate is also set at 40 t/hr. Is there a standard calculation method for this?
The problem should be described in detail: It is necessary to know whether the material is a liquid or a gas The density of the material? Operating pressure of the storage tank? Operating temperature? However, generally, the container design institute provides data such as the maximum negative pressure and maximum flow rate, while the manufacturers specialized in producing breathing valves are responsible for designing and calculating these values.
