Storage Tanks MAWP & MAWV Calcs

Storage Tanks MAWP & MAWV Calcs

(OP)
Hi fellow Mechanical Engineers,

I have some difficulty in calculating the MAWP & MAWV of low pressure Storage Tanks.  I had spent long hours on the Pressure Vessel Handbook and I'm still not sure about the relevance of my calculations.  I have almost a hundred tanks to determine the MAWP/V for one of our major clients before sizing pressure relief devices for those tanks.  Please advise.

Frustrated engineer,
Kevin
