Abstract:
This is a state-of-the-art review of various treatments of earthquake loaded liquid filled shells by the methods of earthquake engineering, fluid dynamics, structural and soil dynamics, as well as the theory of stability and computational mechanics. Different types of tanks and different possibilities of tank failure will be discussed. We will emphasize cylindrical above-ground liquid storage tanks with a vertical axis. But many of the treatments are also valid for other tank configurations. For the calculation of the dynamically activated pressure due to an earthquake a fluid-structure-soil interaction problem must be solved. The review will describe the methods, proposed by different authors, to solve this interaction problem. To study the dynamic behavior of liquid storage tanks, one must distinguish between anchored and unanchored tanks. In the case of an anchored tank, the tank bottom edge is fixed to the foundation. If the tank is unanchored, partial lifting of the tank’s bottom may occur, and a strongly nonlinear problem has to be solved. We will compare the various analytical and numerical models applicable to this problem, in combination with experimental data. An essential aim of this review is to give a summary of methods applicable as tools for an earthquake resistant design, which can be used by an engineer engaged in the construction of liquid storage tanks.

Abstract:
Indirect fire is a domain of artillery. Tanks due to their combat capabilities (mobility, hit resistance and accuracy of fire) were hardly used for such type of tasks, although being prepared from constructional point of view. Nevertheless, evaluation of a concept of tanks utilization in a battlefield frequently oscillated around a support of infantry or just operation support. Closing down and ceasing development of artillery units as a result of the Polish Armed Forces’ transformation led to a situation under which the lack of an adequately intensive artillery fire significantly affecting support of first echelon units can be faced during real operations. For this reason, the General Command of Branches of Armed Forces bearing in mind tanks’ capability of fulfilling the aforementioned task decided to reactivate the competence of indirect fire by tanks’ crews, especially because the execution of this task was terminated at the beginning of the 1990s. The article presents the analysis of documents in force related to conducting indirect fire by a tank subunit and characteristics of individual undertakings required for preparation of a subunit to fulfil above-mentioned tasks based on the experience gained by a tank battalion of the 15th Mechanized Brigade in Giżycko, as well as realization of numerous organizational projects necessary for shooting preparation and fire control execution during fulfillment of this type of fire tasks. Results of practical indirect fire execution by tanks lead to constructive observations referred to achieving high results of an accurate indirect fire by tanks and implementing changes in documents which normalize training and shooting processes, adjusting an organizational portion of the project to the current organizational structures of tank and artillery subunits and to correlations resulting from this fact. The article also inclines to discussion regarding the direction of changes indispensable for conducting the indirect fire by tanks and the rationale of the execution of these tasks in a contemporary battlefield.

Abstract:
Liquid-storage tanks, designed as per the minimum requirements of API Standard 650 (1996), AWWA Standard D100 (1996), or any other design standard, should not be expected to remain fully elastic, or undamaged, when subjected to design ground shaking. Forces prescribed in design standards are only a fraction of those obtained from a linear elastic (no damage) response analysis. Force reductions are based on the expected overstrength and ductility of the system. However, there are no practical methods to quantify the effects of these reductions on potential damage to tanks. Some type of nonlinear analysis is needed to assess the tank's desired performance objectives. This paper presents a simplified nonlinear analysis for performance-based seismic design of tanks. It also presents a method of strengthening tanks by energy-dissipating base anchors. The simplified nonlinear analysis is illustrated for an unanchored tank, a tank anchored with traditional anchors, and a tank anchored with energy-dissipating anchors.

Abstract:
Employees who work in offices absolutely need water, for example to wash hands, to defecate, or other household needs. Water availability must be a concern of managers. But in fact, many officers pay less attention for this. They let a lot of water flows from the tank or reservoir that makes important water resources are wasted. This study aims to regulate the usage of water in office buildings so that water needs for employees are always met. The system was built by three tanks, one tank as the main water source called the central tank and two tanks as a reservoir of water that will be consumed by employees called tank1 and tank2. To measure the water level in the tank, it will use an ultrasonic sensor. If the water in the central tank has reached the minimum capacity length from the surface of the water to the sensor (≥ 20 cm), the tank manager will receives an SMS that indicates the water in the central tank is not available and needs to be refill. Tank 1 and tank 2 are filled automatically by activating the pump and opening the solenoid valve when the water is less than the maximum limit set (> 5 cm). The results showed that the system was able to send an SMS to the tank manager when the water level had reached the minimum limit with an 7.39 seconds of average delivery time. Tank 1 and tank 2 can be returned off when the water level reaches the 5 cm limit. The average success rate of filling water in tank1 was 98.46% and tank2 was 97.32%.

Abstract:
Since the wall thicknesses of most large LPG storage tanks are thin while their diameters are large, their structural integrity is one of the most important design factors. The tanks are mainly located near the waterfront for efficient transport and accessibility. This leads to exposure to wind loads, which should be considered in the design of the tanks. This paper describes an analytical technique for determining the structural integrity of a 45m diameter-LPG storage tank in the case of a wind load based on API 620 code. A finite element model for the tank was made using shell elements and analyzed under 50 m/s wind. The calculated maximum von-Mises stress was 103 MPa whereas the yield strength of tank’s material is 222 MPa. This result shows that the structural integrity of the tank is assured.

Abstract:
Rainwater tanks are being introduced into urban areas in Australia to supplement centralised potable supply systems. A pilot scale tank study and a full-scale field tank study found that heavy metal concentrations in water samples taken from the tank's supply point can, in some cases, exceed levels recommended by guidelines. Both studies also found very high concentrations of heavy metals in the sediments accumulated at the base of rainwater tanks. Laboratory experiments are underway to investigate sediment transport processes within a full-scale tank. Preliminary results demonstrate the effect of sediment resuspension on the quality of water released from the tank outlet. Improved tank designs that reduce sediment resuspension and mitigate impacts on water quality are the focus of future work.

Abstract:
The 2013 Seddon earthquake (Mw 6.5), the 2013 Lake Grassmere earthquake (Mw 6.6), and the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake (Mw 7.8) provided an opportunity to assemble the most extensive damage database to wine storage tanks ever compiled worldwide. An overview of this damage database is presented herein based on the in-field post-earthquake damage data collected for 2058 wine storage tanks (1512 legged tanks and 546 flat-based tanks) following the 2013 earthquakes and 1401 wine storage tanks (599 legged tanks and 802 flat-based tanks) following the 2016 earthquake. Critique of the earthquake damage database revealed that in 2013, 39% and 47% of the flat-based wine tanks sustained damage to their base shells and anchors respectively, while due to resilience measures implemented following the 2013 earthquakes, in the 2016 earthquake the damage to tank base shells and tank anchors of flat-based wine tanks was reduced to 32% and 23% respectively and instead damage to tank barrels (54%) and tank cones (43%) was identified as the two most frequently occurring damage modes for this type of tank. Analysis of damage data for legged wine tanks revealed that the frame-legs of legged wine tanks sustained the greatest damage percentage among different parts of legged tanks in both the 2013 earthquakes (40%) and in the 2016 earthquake (44%). Analysis of damage data and socio-economic findings highlight the need for industry-wide standards, which may have socio-economic implications for wineries.

Qi, Z. "Flushing ballast tanks." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2015. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1466478/.

Full text
Abstract:
The non-indigenous species (NIS) transported by ships’ ballast water lead to destructive failure of the main ecologies giving rise to economic implications of many countries dependent on aquatic organisms. The International Maritime Organisation currently requires that ballast tanks are flushed three times with far ocean water. New protocols for cleaning technologies are still in discussion internationally. Current lacking is the science to understand how ballast tanks geometry and ballast water composition affect the NIS removal rate. This thesis describes a major contribution to this effort and identifies key engineering principles that should be taken into account to improve flushing efficiency. A combined experimental and theoretical study of flushing from ballast tanks is described. A hierarchy of laboratory scale models are designed, built and tested to understand the effect of geometry and stratification, with complexity increasing from 1×7, 2×2, 3×3 to 5×4 configurations. The experimental study is based on an optical method of interrogating the fraction of each compartment and whole tank that is cleaned. By drawing on modelling approaches applied in related areas, notably building engineering, a number of new mathematical models are developed that have no free variables (when resistance of pathways is the same) or require the use of closures for pressure drop coefficients. For homogeneous flow where stratification is negligible, the agreement between predictions and experiments is within 1.2%. Likewise, when resistances are different, the model is accurate, except when the inhomogeneity is significant. Three models are developed to include the influence of stratification. For miscible fluids, the stratified mixing model is accurate within 5% at Richardson number between 30 and 1000. We apply the validated models to examine how to change practical ballast tanks and how cleaning efficiency affects the total NIS removal. To enhance flushing, a single outlet should be placed far from the inlet.

Abstract:
A suite of models were integrated to predict the potential of a large liquid hydrocarbon storage tank fire escalating and involving neighbouring tanks, as a result of thermal loading. A steady state pool fire radiant heat model was combined with a further model, in order to predict the distribution of thermal loading over the surface of an adjacent tank, and another model was incorporated to predict the thermal response of the contents of the adjacent tank. In order to predict if, or when, an adjacent tank will ignite, the radiant heat from the fire received by the adjacent tank must be quantified. There are a range of mathematical models available in the literature to calculate the radiant heat flux to a specified target and each of these models is based on assumptions about the fire. The performance of three of these models, which vary in complication, was analysed (the single point source model, the solid flame model and the fire dynamics simulator computational fluid dynamics model) and, in order to determine the performance of each model, the predictions made by each of the models were compared with actual experimental measurements of radiant heat flux. Experiments were undertaken involving different liquid fuels and under a range of weather conditions and, upon comparing the predictions of the models with the experimental measurements, the solid flame model was found to be the one most appropriate for safety assessment work. Thus, the solid flame model was incorporated into the thermal loading model, in order to predict the distribution of radiant heat flux falling onto an adjacent tank wall and roof. A model was developed to predict the thermal response of the contents of an adjacent tank, in order to predict variations in the liquid and vapour temperature, any increase in the vapour space pressure and the evolution of the vapours within the given time and the distribution of thermal loading over the surface of the tank as predicted by previous models; of particular importance was the identification of the possibility of forming a flammable vapour/air mixture outside the adjacent tank. To assess the performance of the response model, experiments were undertaken at both laboratory and field scale. The laboratory experiments were conducted in the Chemical Engineering Laboratory at Loughborough University and required the design and construction of an experimental facility representing a small-scale storage tank exposed to an adjacent fire. The field scale experiments were undertaken at Centro Jovellanos, Asturias, Spain. An experimental vessel was designed and fabricated specifically to conduct the laboratory tests and to measure the response of a tank containing hydrocarbon liquids to an external heat load. The vessel was instrumented with a network of thermocouples and pressure transmitter and gauge, in order to monitor the internal pressure and distribution in temperature throughout the liquid and its variation with time. The model predicting the thermal response of an adjacent tank was shown to produce predictions that correlated with the experimental results, particularly in terms of the vapour space pressure and liquid surface temperature. The vapour space pressure is important in predicting the time when the vacuum/pressure valve opens, while the liquid surface temperature is important as it governs the rate of evaporation. Combining the three models (the Pool Fire model, the Thermal Loading model and the Response model) forms the basis of the storage tanks spacing international codes and presents a number of innovative features, in terms of assessing the response to an adjacent tank fire: such features include predicting the distribution of thermal load on tanks adjacent to the tank on fire and thermal load on the ground. These models can predict the time required for the opening of the pressure vacuum relief valve on adjacent tanks and the release of the flammable vapour/air mixture into the atmosphere. A wide range of design and fire protection alternatives, such as the water cooling system and the minimum separation distance between storage tanks, can be assessed using these models. The subsequent results will help to identify any recommended improvements in the design of facilities and management systems (inspection and maintenance), in addition to the fire fighting response to such fires.

COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
Pela observação e análise das condições dos locais atingidos por violentos sismos destrutivos, pode-se demostrar a grande importância do comportamento do maciço de solo na resposta dinâmica das estruturas na superfície. Embora esta importância tenha sido há muito reconhecida, só recentemente uma investigação sistemática dos fatores intervenientes na interação dinâmica solo-estrutura vem merecendo a atenção adequada. Graças ao avanço de técnicas numéricas e métodos de análise, é possível hoje estudar-se este problema de forma eficiente, ampla e racional. O presente trabalho consiste em uma análise pelo método dos elementos finitos do problema do comportamento dinâmico dos tanques de armazenamento de combustível da Refinaria Costarricense de Petróleo (RECOPE) freqüentemente sujeitos a abalos sísmicos. A avaliação da amplificação sísmica dos solos da região da refinaria, o comportamento estrutural dos tanques sob solicitações dinâmicas, a análise comparativa dos métodos de projeto recomendados na Costa Rica, os efeitos da interação dinâmica solo-tanque, etc., são alguns dos pontos examinados em detalhe neste trabalho. O conhecimento do comportamento dinâmico dos tanques da Refinaria de RECOPE, Costa Rica, foi significativamente aperfeiçoado pela realização deste trabalho.
Through observation and analysis of the local conditions of regions subjected to violent seismic excitations, one can conclude the great importance of the dynamic behavior of the soil mass on the response of structural systems founded in it. Although the importance of the soil behavior has long been recognized in the literature, systematic investigations on the influencing factors on the dynamic soil-structure interaction problems have received the due attention only recently.Given the modern developments in numerical methods as well as the now common availability of powerful microcomputers in design offices, it is now possible to study this problem following a rational and efficient manner.In the present work, an analysis of the dynamic behavior of steel tanks for fuel storage at the industrial plant of RECOPE (Petroleum Refinery of Costa Rica), frequently subjected to severe earthquakes, has been carried out using the finite element method.The main points investigated in this thesis are: the evaluation of dynamic amplifications due to local soil properties, the structural behavior of tanks under dynamic forces, the soil-structure interaction effects as well as a comparative study with the design procedures currently employed in Costa Rica.The technical knowledge about the dynamic behavior of RECOPE`s fuel tanks has been significantly improved by this research.

Abstract:
Plastics fuel tanks have been used successfully abroad ; metal counterparts are still predominant in this country plastics tanks have to satisfy stringent performance regulations : low temperature impact tests ; permeability ; and fire resistance. Blow moulded high density polyethylene (HDPE) fuel tanks have superior strength to mass ratio compared with metal equivalents (the density of steel is about 8000 kg/m3 compared with HDPE, which has a density of under 1000 kg/m3 ). HDPE will tend to drip in a fire situation, thus reducing explosion risk. HDPE is the chosen material because it possesses inherent properties suitable for the blow moulding process : it has a high viscosity at low stresses ; and is highly inert. Rotational moulded HDPE fuel tanks can also be considered. However, these are shown to have inferior properties when compared with blow moulded tanks ; attraction of rotational moulding is the cheapness of equipment. Petrol immersion was found to enhance impact properties of HDPE, although yield stresses were lowered slightly. The thickness distributions of blow moulded fuel tanks were found to vary ; this is because of the present difficulty of predicting parison behaviour with respect to time. Thickness is important because of impact strength and permeation considerations. Impact properties of fuel tanks were assessed ; peak force of impact was found to be heavily dependent on thickness (raised to the power 1.1) and temperature of mould in the blow moulding process (a low mould temperature led to inferior properties). Pinch-offs were found to be particularly detrimental to impact properties. Cooling behaviour was investigated. With the aid of a cooling model for blow mouldings, it was found that a warm mould (40·C) could be used with internal air circulation to obtain a cooling time the same as that with a cold mould and no air circulation. Thus optimising mechanical strength and maintaining economic viability. Welding of injection moulded fittings to the main blow moulded body of the fuel tank was found to be faulty, in all of the tanks examined ; many weld failures have been reported in use. This work determines optimum welding conditions for HDPE grades, these are Rigidex H060-45P and Lupolen 426l-A.

Abstract:
Circulation regions always exist in the settling tanks. These regions reduce the tank’s performance and decrease effective volume of the tank. Recirculation zones would also result in short-circuiting and high flow mixing problems. Inlet position would also have effect on these, too. Using good baffle configuration may increase performance of settling tanks. One method for comparison of different tanks with each others is to use FTC. In this paper, by using FTC the effects of inlet position and baffle configuration on the hydraulic performance of primary settling tanks are studied. The best position of baffle is also determined.

Full text
Abstract:
Buckling behavior of tanks with a conical roof under harmonic settlement has been researched in this paper. A real tank in engineering is taken into account and the harmonic settlement is applied to the bottom of the tank to simulate its buckling behavior. Results show that the tank wall will be subjected to a deformation mutation when the settlement reaches a critical value. It means that compared to the conical roof, the tank wall is more vulnerable to buckling. Because of the complexity added by the grid of rafters and rings on the roof, two different simplified models are presented. For the first model, the tank’s roof is modified to an equivalent thickness based on the smeared method; for the other one, the roof is completely eliminated and its influence is represented by simply supported boundary conditions at the top of the tank wall. Analysis shows that the tank model without a roof can’t reflect buckling behavior of the real tank in engineering very well. While the model with an equivalent thickness roof can avoid this deficiency and achieve high efficiency and accuracy. It’s recommended to be applied to buckling analysis of tanks under settlement. Based on that, effects of wave numbers on the critical settlement for the three models are researched and compared. Result shows that the simplified tank model with an equivalent thickness roof presented in this paper is efficient and useful for buckling analysis of tanks with a conical roof under settlement.

Abstract:
Abstract Large scale molten salt storage tanks are widely used in the solar thermal power systems. For these tanks, buckling is a primary failure mode because of its features such as large scale, thinned wall and high temperature. Suffering high temperature condition is a major distinction between molten salt storage tanks and other water or oil tanks. High temperature can cause large thermal deformation for large scale structures which may have an effect on the safety assessment, especially on buckling assessment. Meanwhile, the hydrostatic pressure of molten salt can also cause the change of tank’s configuration. In this paper, a typical large molten salt storage tank has been studied. The critical buckling loads of the tank roof are obtained using nonlinear buckling analysis considering thermal loads and hydrostatic pressure. The results are discussed and some conclusions are proposed for engineering design.

Abstract:
Economic analyses for concentrated solar power (CSP) systems indicate that the cost of electricity can be reduced through the use a molten-salt thermal energy storage system (TES). Use of a thermocline in the tanks to keep cold and hot fluids separate in the tank has been proposed to further reduce the cost for TES to about $30/kWh thermal. This paper studies the details for molten-salt storage where the tank is filled with nominally 1-inch-size quartzite rocks and 1/4-inch sand particles. These filler materials are envisioned to occupy 75% of the tank’s volume. Experiments at Sandia National Laboratories indicate that these filler materials are compatible with the molten salt, and a well-established thermocline can be maintained in these tanks. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory attempts to look into the next level for the tank design, modeling heat transfer between solid filler and molten salt. Loose filler materials exert added hoop stresses in the tank that are likely to be unmanageable in the long run because of thermal cycling. Structured brick-like stacked shapes are needed that can maintain their structure without requiring sidewall support for the fill material. Large tanks with a volumetric capacity of 100,000 kL maintain a reasonable thermocline during charge and discharge. We report on progress in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of such tanks. However, for operational convenience for the plant, we suggest the use of multiple tanks.

Abstract:
Abstract The transport of hazardous materials in truck cargo tanks can cause severe environmental damage as a result of the tank’s failure during a collision. Impact due to collision involves the transient dynamic response of the tank, fluid and their interaction. This paper develops a computational approach to predict the dynamic transient response of the tank shell structure subjected to impact loads during crash accidents. In order to compute the fluid and structure interaction, the finite element formulations for the added mass to the structure are developed and integrated with DYNA3D, the nonlinear dynamic structural finite element code. Thus, the computer based approach provides an efficient design tool for fluid filled thin walled structures in general and cargo tanks subjected to an impact situation. This paper presents the lumping process required by the added mass approach for cargo tanks under impact conditions. The structural integrity performance of cargo tank shell construction is investigated.

Full text
Abstract:
The Old Solvent Tanks (OST), located at the Savannah River Site (SRS) Old Radioactive Waster Burial Ground (ORWBG), are comprised of 22 underground storage tanks that were used to store spent radioactive solvent and aqueous wastes generated from the plutonium-uranium extraction (PUREX) process. The OSTs were installed at various dates between 1955 and 1968 and used to store the spent solvents until 1974. The spent solvents stored in the OSTs were transferred out from 1976 through 1981 leaving only residual liquids and sludges that could not be pumped out. Final remediation goals for the ORWBG include an overlying infiltration control system. If the tanks were to structurally fail, they would collapse causing potential for onsite worker exposure and release of tank contents to the environment. Therefore, as an interim action, methods for stabilizing the tanks were evaluated. The preferred remedial action was “Grouting of the Tank Wastes In-situ.” The primary function of the grout is to provide structural stability of the tanks by filling void space with material that prevents tank collapse. Incidental to any mixing that may occur, residual material in the tanks will be incorporated into the grouting mixture. The incidental grouting will ultimately improve environmental protection by rendering the residual material immobile. To accomplish this task, the SRS Environmental Restoration Division (ERD) teamed with the Savannah River Technology Center (SRTC) to determine a remedial design strategy and to translate this strategy into a construction specification and drawings for implementation. The OST remedial design strategy contained the following key aspects for performance requirements and acceptance criteria: • Grout mix; • Tank atmosphere testing; • Grout delivery system and camera monitoring system; • Off-Gas HEPA filter system and environmental monitoring; • OST Sealing and labeling. From November 2001 through February 2003 all 22 Old Solvent Tanks were successfully stabilized. This paper will discuss the systems designed to perform and monitor the grouting operation, the grouting process, and the radiological controls and wastes associated with grouting the Old Solvent Tanks.

Abstract:
In china, atmospheric storage tanks are not included in the management of special equipment, and therefore they are not required to be inspected compulsorily. There is larger difference between China and developed countries on atmospheric storage tank inspection technique than the other techniques on the inspection of pressure vessels. It is widely believed that the strength worsening and perforation of the tank is mainly caused by the serious corrosion at the bottom surface of tank floor. The present development of nondestructive testing on atmospheric storage tank was analyzed systematically in this paper, in which the principle, standard present status, the usage of inspection equipments and the application of the acoustic emission testing and magnetic flux leakage testing techniques on atmospheric storage tanks were mainly introduced. The problems existing in the inspection equipments usage were discussed. A practice for inspecting and evaluating atmosphere storage tanks using these testing methods was proposed.
