Tank Dent Aceptance Criteria
- Thread starter TANKO
- Start date
Atmospheric or pressurized tank? Shape of tank? Size of tank versus size of distortion?
Maybe check Roark's to see if there are any calculations for plate stress with distortions. If there isn't, you may be able to figure out residual stress from the dent and then use that to figure out total plate stress while the tank is at normal/max operating conditions.
