How to calculate how many tons of cargo a spherical tank can hold
Thread Content
How to calculate the number of tons of liquefied gas in a 5000 m3 spherical tank? We use radars and magnetic flap level gauges here. For example, if the liquid level in the spherical tank is 1 meter and the density of the liquefied gas is 0.6, how can we calculate how many tons are currently in the tank?

The density mentioned by the original poster is probably not very accurate; one can check the basic data handbook for petrochemicals to find the density of the liquid phase at actual operating temperatures.
