Hello, that's my doubt:
Just a hypothetical scenario...
If i have a small Diesel tank built according to API 650 (like 6m dia and 6m height),and a 500mm manhole on the shell, can I use the manhole to clean the tank?
Do I really need a cleanout door to clean the tank or can i use the manhole...
Dear all,
im designing a tank under api 650 annex F for academic purpose.
the roof is cone type (self-supporting) with 9.5º slope
Using the equation given in F.6.1 (written below) i got 0.046 mm
t = (P x R)/((cos(alpha)*Sd*E) + CA
t = (0.363*2.865)/(0.165*137*1) = 0.046 mm
here is my data...
Hi everyone, my problem is:
There are several tanks and I need to standardize the double bottom installation process. It's my first time dealing with API650.I have to open some space in the shell. How I design the supports around the shell to avoid buckling?
I have with me API650 and API653...
