Hi another question on resistance to external pressure
If I have water two storage vessels, one marked 'atmospheric' and protected at 100 mbarg and one rated at 1 barg, of a very similar shape, size and diameter and the same material (stainless steel), and having been in the same service...
I am working for a client who has an stainless steel low pressure vertical water tank for which there is no technical data or drawings
It has a useable volume of 33.8 m3 (from nameplate) and has a diameter of approx 3m and height 5m
The nameplate also says:
S 1 bar
PE 1.5 bar (this is France...
Hi all
This is related to my thread on the vacuum pulling due to steam condensation in the atmospheric tanks.

I am trying to quantify all the possible relief scenarios
One of the cases (which I think is not decisive) is a blocked-in vent during...
Hi all
I need to check the sizing of an air flow into an insulated atmospheric water storage tank for the following situation and it is causing me a headache. I will then also need to size a new relief valve for the tank based on the scenario of the air flow system injecting too much air at...
Hi,
I'm new to this forum and would really appreciate some help.
I've been asked to design a line in which hot water (90-95 degC) must fall under gravity from an existing water distillation unit / water storage tank combination (a few meters apart, slight vertical drop from the last condenser...
