Seismic Design of Storage Tanks
Seismic Design of Storage Tanks
(OP)
Hi to everybody!!!
I'm looking for information regarding to the calculation of the natural period of first mode sloshing for a rectangular steel welded tank. I'm using a guidline from the API which uses an approximate formulation for circular tanks which depends on a k factor and the tank diameter. The k factor depends on the diameter to height ratio.

Reference to this thread794-139620
the following Dose Sloshing have any Effects In Full Vertical Cylindrical Vessels
The list of reference dose have natural period of first mode sloshing for a rectangular.
