Question: What is the relationship between the design temperature of a low-pressure gas storage tank, its operating conditions, and the environmental extreme temperatures?
Thread Content
As the title suggests: Design a gas storage tank with a volume of 10 cubic meters and a pressure capacity of 10 kilopounds. How is the design temperature determined? What is the relationship between the design temperature and the operating temperature? What is the relationship between the design temperature and the environmental extreme temperatures? Additionally, please attach the standards and specifications used for the relevant data, thank you!
In the absence of a heat source, and at normal temperatures, the design temperature is set at -19 to 50°C; however, in the Northeast, the container must be designed for low temperatures based on the local average monthly minimum temperature.
