I have an API 650 floating roof tank where gasoline is stored . Vapor pressure is 70 kPa.
Tank is ATM designed.
PV- breather valves are set @ 3,55mbarg/-2,55 mbarg.
3,55 mbar = 0,355kPa
We got an observation of "excessive" losses so we where requested to study a solution to increase set...
Thanks all for your reply!
