Storage Tank analysis-API 650
Storage Tank analysis-API 650
(OP)
hello,
This is regarding the storage tank analysis.
as per API 650 the appendix P is applicable to the the tank dia 36m & higher.Tank bulging is also the part of appendix P.
my query is for the tank having diameter less than 36m can we ignore the bulging effect ?
also the how to calculate the nozzle allowable forces and moments for these tanks ?
Vijay.

You'd probably be better off posting this in the Storage Tank engineering Forum if you need to know about design methods and limits.
