Breathing losses from Low-Pressure Storage Tanks due to atmospheric weather change
Journal of Loss Prevention in The Process Industries, 2016Co-Authors: Davide Moncalvo, Michael Davies, Roman Weber, Reinhard ScholzAbstract:Abstract Vapors inside atmospheric and Low-Pressure Storage Tanks may condense either slowly during rainfalls or abruptly for instance by injection of cold liquid during steaming. Vapor condensation inside Tanks may result in deformation and collapse. The latest editions of API 2000 and ISO 28300 standards lack an explicit formulation for the required in-breathing to compensate for vapor condensation, caused by a prolonged rainfall, which is the main topic of this paper. The analytical model here, which includes vapor condensation on the tank walls, predicted total in-breathing requirements for mixtures of air saturated with vapors, which are substantially larger than those calculated using the procedures in the standards. This paper is aimed to provide some realistic guidance for the reader addressing the issue of vapor condensation when determining the worst realistic case scenario for the tank breathing requirements.

Relieving Flow-rate Calculation of Breath Valve
Guangdong Chemical Industry, 2020Co-Authors: Ltd ShanghaiAbstract:Breath valve is a common device which can protect the low pressure Storage Tanks to maintain the normal working pressure, ensure the Storage tank not be damaged for the reason of overpressure or vacuum, and it also help to reduce the volatilization loss of the Storage liquid inside of the tank. To select the Breath valve, one of the important issues is to define the relieving capacity. It is introduced a calculation method here which to determine the relief and vacuum flow-rate based on API 2000-2009's methodology.

Analysis of Seismic Acceleration for Cryogenic and Low Pressure Storage Tanks
Liaoning Chemical Industry, 2020Co-Authors: Wang Rong-huAbstract:Based on an ideal model, application of seismic fortification intensity and correlation coefficients were analyzed. According to domestic and foreign related seismic fortification criterion, the seismic acceleration for cryogenic and low pressure Storage Tanks was discussed. On the premise of fully meeting the requirement of economy and safety, the seismic fortification goal need be achieved.
