External Pressure for storage tank API 650 - 08/27/15 01:13 PM
Hello,
I have a SS-304 storage tank with 1" insulation (ID=14 feet X 20 feet High and self supporting cone roof). I am using Tank software for analysis purpose. In Tank software, under external pressure analysis - specify external pressure (Pe)in lb/ft^2.
Please, Can some one explain regarding external pressure. What will be the value?
I am using -1.73 inch of water OR -8.999 lb/ft^2. Is it correct??
I appreciate it.
Thanks - Mayur
