Hello Team,
Thanks for your responses. Obviously the desing pressure was wrongly specified and the pressure has been updated to ATM pressure.
Many thanks.
These are the input parameters for the API Tank I am designing:
Tank diameter = 40m
Tank height = 17.5m
design pressure = 1psig
design temperature = 40.6degC
product stored = crude oil
product specific gravity = 0.9
corrosion allowance = 3mm
joint efficiency E = 1.0
Tank material = A516-70...
Hello,
Thanks for the prompt response.
@JStephen, actually the tank dimensions is 40mD x 17.5mH. Now in putting design pressure of 1psig is generating a large uplift force at the base and large compression force in the top angle area.
Below is the warning I am getting from the AMETank...
Hello Team,
Good day to you all.
please I will like to find out, if the pressure unit in AMETank Software is in gauge or absolute?
This is because I am design a crude oil storage tank and the design pressure is 1psi. But when I input my design pressure of 1psi (6.8kpa) the result I get from...
Good morning,
Many thanks Littleinch and SnTman for your prompt reply.
Actually the design Code is ASME B31.4 Pipeline Transportation System for Liquid Hydrocarbon and other liquids.
Pipeline material (PIG LAUNCHER) is API 5L X52.
With the above explanation, i will refer to the Code MSS SP 44...
Goodday,
please how do i determine the flange rating of a 30" Flange of material A694 F52 (ASME B16.47)
Given the design conditions Temp - 38degC Pressure = 1480PSIG.
Thanks for your assistance.
Regards,
Dear All,
Please i have been studying a book "Guidebook for the design of ASME Section VIII Pressure Vessel" by James R. Farr and Mann H. Jawad.
Reference to the attachment Example 5.1. highlighted in yellow for the calculation of reinforcement openings. After the calculation of the minimum...
