    Water Capacity

    @LittleInch: Hi and sorry for delay.. I got what you said, well explained. And you are right abt "1 litre of water will weigh the same as 1.96 litres of propane." I have nailed it. I need to have water capacity for the safety distance. Safety distance is categorized on the basis of W/C. Thank...

    Water Capacity

    @racookpe1978 This is Internal Diameter. This is perfect Hemisphere. At least some empirical formulas will also do. We know that 1 liter = 1.96 Kg of propane, hence using simple arithmetic converting the same in liters. Further comparing the same with Water. (But i am not sure if its correct)...

    Water Capacity

    Hi LittleInch 1 MT = 1 Metric Ton Unit in Metric System. I want to check Water Capacity at 100% tank filled. Whereas i propane/LPG is going to be filled at 80-85%, but that is not the case i need to check for Water. Low level will be 20%. For Eg:- If tank is 50 MT and Radius is 1.85 meters...

    Minimum required thickness

    Refer UG-27. Let me tell you, thickness does not depend on what fluid you are using, its solely depends on your Pressure, MOC and dimension. In case of UG-16(b), those fluids even if exposed to ambient will not have any ill effect, hence those are standard thickness provided by ASME. Please...

    Water Capacity

    Hello Friends I have very basic simple question to ask. How much water capacity does 1 MT storage tank will have(considering dish end as hemispherical)ie. 1 MT storage tank will contain how much liters of water. In that case how much W/C in 50 MT ? Your kind help will be appreciated.

    ANSI Flange 300# Failing at Design Pressure

    Hello friends and MJCronin, I am sorry for the delay. I really appreciate your answer for the same it has however increased my knowledge. The reason that it was failing because it was not sustaining on that thickness. hence 300# flange was failing and 150# was passing. That is all i can say...

    How can the material impact test temperature be set in PVElite 2017 ?

    Hi Vessel Fred Sorry for the delay. To set the material on Impact Test on PV Elite, all you have to do is --> While selecting material there are 3 dots besides its selection. --> Go for "If normalized or quenched and tempered option" so that your material gets shift to curve D --> Check the...

    ANSI Flange 300# Failing at Design Pressure

    Hello Friends, Thank you very much for all your replies. The problem got solved. I have increased the thickness considerably with approval and things are now fine. Thank you once again. @MJCronin SS --> Screen Shot BTW MJCronin, why in America do you take particularly 250 psi ? is there any...

    ANSI Flange 300# Failing at Design Pressure

    Hello Friends, We are designing Propane Mounded Storage Tank for Water Capacity of 119,000 Liters. Here are the following details with the SS. Working Pressure - 12 kg/cm^2 (171 psi) Design Pressure - 21.356 kg/cm^2 (304 psi) Corrosion Allowance - 1.5 mm (Is it fair to have 1.5 mm (0.059") or...
