Hello,

merry christmas to all.

We have a pressure vessel, spherical tank for the storage of LPG. I am trying to find out any codes/standards that will guide me through this procedure.

This tank is already calibrated by a strapping method. The first way was to measure a vertical and horizontal perimeter. Then take the average and calculate the diameter. But this method is not accurate at all.

Can you please help me? There should be more technologically advanced methods for more accurate results.

Tank you.
