I would like to ask everyone if anyone has measured the breathing loss of fixed-roof tanks

Currently, the calculation of emissions from storage tanks is generally done using the formulae outlined in the \"Guidelines for Identifying VOCs Pollution Sources in the Petrochemical Industry\". However, these formulae are based on those used in Chapter 7 of the EPA’s AP-42 document for calculating tank emissions, and the results obtained seem not to be particularly accurate. Therefore, I would like to ask if any of you have conducted actual measurements of the breathing loss associated with storage tanks on-site. If you have carried out similar experiments or research, could you share the methods and measurement equipment used? Thank you all~
This is related to factors such as the tank capacity and the properties and temperature of the oil; it’s not fixed
I would like to ask everyone: can a flow meter be connected to the breather valve of a storage tank to measure the gas flow rate?
If it’s urgently needed, you can refer to some environmental impact assessment reports, which provide more detailed information
