Design and Study of Floating Roofs for Oil Storage Tanks
Floating roofs are widely used to store petroleum products with high volatility. This is to prevent the product loss and to ensure safe environment around the storage tanks. However, small number of researches were accomplished. These researches aim at study the design of the floating roof and the associated risks that it faces during operation. In an effort to compensate the lack of knowledge ...
متن کاملIntroduction of Air Cushion to Reduce Seismic Demand in Cylindrical Water Storage Tanks
Water storage tanks not designed explicitly for seismic loading could require retrofit. One of the common ways of retrofit include some structural change in the lateral load resisting system that could be expensive and requires the tank to be out of service for relatively long time. This paper introduces a novel method to reduce seismic demand on tank’s wall without structural intervention. Thi...
متن کاملImproving seismic performance of elevated cylindrical water storage tanks using nonlinear isolators incorporating liquid–structure interaction
Pervasive construction of elevated liquid tanks as the most important sources for urban hygienic water, and their failure under earthquake, highlighs the necessity for research toward new passive control devices. Design and use of base-isolation systems for elevated liquid tanks is propounded as a novel seismic engineering technology. To date, no special examination has been discussed in relati...
متن کاملQuantitative risk analysis of oil storage facilities in seismic areas.
Quantitative risk analysis (QRA) of industrial facilities has to take into account multiple hazards threatening critical equipment. Nevertheless, engineering procedures able to evaluate quantitatively the effect of seismic action are not well established. Indeed, relevant industrial accidents may be triggered by loss of containment following ground shaking or other relevant natural hazards, eit...
متن کاملInvestigating the Economic Consequences of Fire and Explosion Domino Phenomenon in Oil Refinery Storage Tanks
ABSTRACT Background and aims: Identifying the costs of accidents and modeling them can encourage industries to build safety systems. Oil derivatives storage tanks are among the most important industrial facilities that are always effective in domino effects in the oil industry. Therefore, the present study investigated the economic consequences of the fire and explosion domino phenomenon in oi...
