Hi, i have to sizing a diaphragm expansion tank for hot water boiler with Asme code. Section VI provides a minimum capacity equation but it doesn't states for which type of close expansion tank it's applicable. I tried to find in the other section (mainly in Section VIII) but i obtained no results. Someone can advise me?

Thanks for your time,
Sam
