    Aspect ratio range for storage tank

    I cannot seem to find a limiting range for the aspect ratio (L/D) of atmospheric tanks built to API standards. My tanks currently are in the range from 1.2 to 1.5 Please Help

    liquid Anhydrous Ammonia (15barg) expand to gas (1 bar)

    Our ambient temperatures are 30 degrees C. We calculated that to vaporize would require a large amount of energy. we have 32 barg steam available which we were told to use sparingly and 3 barg steam.

    liquid Anhydrous Ammonia (15barg) expand to gas (1 bar)

    Thanx latexman Do you know of where I can get some information about anhydrous vaporization. I only seem to be finding small units used on farms, there are none that can deal with our flow of 5500 kg/h.

    liquid Anhydrous Ammonia (15barg) expand to gas (1 bar)

    The tank is 316ss and is carrying a nickel sulphate slurry at 85C. once the ammonia is bubbled through there should be no anhydrous vapours going to vent. I've been looking at trying an ammonia vaporiser but the ones available are for small scale use (for farmers) and the project doesn't want...

    liquid Anhydrous Ammonia (15barg) expand to gas (1 bar)

    Hi, we are introducing anhydrous ammonia at 15 bar gauge into a tank at 1 bara and 85 degrees Celcius. We meed to keep the temparatue at 85 and on expansion the anhydrous goes to -37 degrees. What is the safest method of introduction?
