Standard specifications for liquid oxygen storage tanks may vary by region. Here are examples of common standards:
- U.S. Standards: The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the American Petroleum Institute (API) have issued a series of standards for liquid oxygen storage tanks, such as ANSI/API Standard 2510 "Design and Construction of Liquid Oxygen Storage Tanks" and ANSI/API Standard 2510A "Supplement to the Design and Construction of Liquid Oxygen Storage Tanks."
- European Standards: The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) has issued a series of standards for liquid oxygen storage tanks, including EN 13458 "Design and Manufacture of Liquid Oxygen Storage Tanks" and EN 14015 "Design and Manufacture of Vertical Welded Steel Fixed Storage Tanks."
- Chinese Standards: The Standardization Administration of the People's Republic of China (SAC) has issued a series of standards for liquid oxygen storage tanks, such as GB/T 18442 "Design Specification for Liquid Oxygen Storage Tanks" and GB/T 18443 "Construction and Acceptance Specification for Liquid Oxygen Storage Tanks."
These standards typically cover requirements for design, manufacture, installation, operation, maintenance, and inspection of liquid oxygen storage tanks. They encompass provisions for the tank's structure, materials, safety valves, insulation, leak control, fire protection measures, and safety distances to ensure the safety and reliability of the storage tanks.
When designing, manufacturing, and using liquid oxygen storage tanks, it is essential to adhere to applicable standards and regulations, and to collaborate with local regulatory authorities and personnel to ensure compliance with relevant safety requirements and laws.
The stable pressure design for a 15 cubic meter liquid argon tank requires consideration of the following aspects:
Tank Pressure: Determine the design pressure of the tank to meet the storage and supply requirements for liquid argon. Establish an appropriate design pressure range based on the properties and operating conditions of liquid argon.
Stabilization System: Select an appropriate stabilization system to maintain stable pressure within the storage tank. The stabilization system typically includes components such as pressure regulators, pressure sensors, and control valves, which are used for monitoring and adjusting the pressure inside the tank.
Pressure Sensors: Install pressure sensors to monitor the pressure changes inside storage tanks in real-time. The sensors transmit pressure signals to the pressure stabilization system, enabling timely adjustment of the control valve to maintain stable pressure within the tank.
Control Valve: Select an appropriate control valve for adjusting the gas flow and pressure within the storage tank. The control valve should have excellent regulating performance and stability to ensure the pressure within the tank remains within the set range.
Safety Valve: Install a safety valve to automatically release gas when the pressure inside the storage tank exceeds the set value, preventing overpressure. The safety valve should be selected and installed based on the design pressure and capacity of the storage tank.
Voltage Stabilization System Control: Equipped with a suitable control system for monitoring and regulating the operation of the voltage stabilization system. The control system enables automatic adjustments and alarm functions to ensure stable and safe pressure within the storage tank.
It's important to note that the design of the voltage stabilization should be tailored to the specific engineering requirements and operating conditions of the liquid argon storage tank, adhering to relevant local laws, regulations, and standards. When designing and installing the voltage stabilization system, it's recommended to consult with an engineer or seek guidance from relevant institutions to ensure the reliability and safety of the system.
During the operation of low-temperature storage tanks, it is indeed necessary to avoid wrinkling. Wrinkling refers to the occurrence of folds or deformation on the tank wall, which may lead to a decrease in the structural strength of the tank and could even cause leakage or rupture.
Here are some precautions to avoid squeezing in low-temperature storage tanks:
Tank Design: Select an appropriate tank design that can withstand the pressure and weight of low-temperature liquids. The tank's wall thickness and supporting structure should comply with relevant standards and regulations.
Material Selection: Choose materials suitable for low-temperature environments, with adequate strength and low-temperature resistance. Common materials include low-temperature steel, stainless steel, etc.
Insulation Layer for Storage Tanks: The design and construction of the insulation layer must meet the requirements to ensure effective reduction of heat conduction and temperature variations. The material and thickness of the insulation layer should be selected based on the specific conditions.
Tank Operation: During the loading and unloading of liquids in the tank, it is essential to avoid rapid or excessive fluid flow to minimize impact and stress concentration on the tank walls.
Tank Maintenance: Regularly inspect and maintain the structure and insulation of the storage tanks to ensure they are in perfect condition. Any abnormalities or damage should be repaired or replaced promptly.
Temperature Control: During the operation of low-temperature liquid storage tanks, it is crucial to strictly control the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the tank to avoid excessive temperature changes and thermal stress.
In summary, preventing deformation in low-temperature storage tanks hinges on rational design, material selection, proper installation and maintenance of the insulation layer, and strict control of temperature variations. Regular inspections and maintenance are also crucial for ensuring the safe operation of the tanks.
The liquid oxygen storage tank possesses the following characteristics:
High Purity: The liquid oxygen storage tank contains high-purity liquid oxygen, typically exceeding 99.5% purity. This makes the liquid oxygen tank essential for applications requiring high-purity oxygen, such as medical, aerospace, and research fields.
Low Temperature: As the boiling point of liquid oxygen is -183°C, the liquid oxygen storage tank must have excellent insulation properties to maintain the low temperature state of the liquid oxygen. Tanks are typically designed with double or multi-layer structures, filled with insulating material in between to minimize heat transfer and evaporation of the liquid oxygen.
High Pressure: Liquid oxygen tanks typically need to withstand high pressure to maintain their liquid state. The design and material selection of the tank must consider the pressure requirements of liquid oxygen to ensure the tank's safety and reliability.
Flammability: Liquid oxygen is highly flammable and can support combustion. Therefore, during the design and use of liquid oxygen storage tanks, fire prevention measures must be implemented to ensure there are no ignition sources nearby, and appropriate fire extinguishing equipment is provided.
High Density: Liquid oxygen has a higher density than gaseous oxygen, allowing liquid oxygen tanks to store more oxygen. This gives liquid oxygen tanks an advantage in applications requiring large amounts of oxygen supply, such as in the field.
Corrosiveness: Liquid oxygen has certain properties of corrosiveness.
