Hey everyone,
I'm having trouble understanding how to calculate the minimum required nozzle thickness (tmin) for a newly constructed tank as per API 650. Could someone provide some guidance or insight on the correct approach?
Thanks in advance!
 
Look at section 5.7 in API 650 and use tables 5.6b - 5.8b.
