Liquid storage tanks are lifeline structures and strategically very important. Heavy damages or even collapse of these facilities subjected to strong earthquakes may cause disastrous consequences. In this paper, the seismic response a multistage series liquid tank was simulated by finite element method verified scaled-down experiment. The structural flexibility liquid-structure coupling charact...

The article describes the design and strength calculation of a low-pressure steel tank, which is used for storage hydrogen in metal alloy based on Ti Zr. An external liquid heat exchanger considered hydride tank. Strength calculations were performed to verify selected wall thickness vessel bottom type according STN EN 13322-2 standard implementation tank operating conditions.

The effects of agitation, liquid-only manure, depth and time on odour emission rates were investigated. Manure storage tanks were filled to incremental depths every two weeks. At each depth odour samples were collected twice. The second sample was collected seven days after the first. Odour concentration was measured with an olfactometer. Three different pig-manure treatments were investigated....

The article is devoted to improving the accuracy of system for measuring and controlling level liquid materials in horizontal cylindrical tanks. task ensuring continuous accurate control level, volume mass petroleum products, taking into account shape bottom tank, set. In order improve device, a laser rangefinder installed, which allows you determine distance from tank lid point surface product...

Significant heat transfer issues associated with four alternative hydrogen storage methods are identified and discussed, with particular emphasis on technologies for vehicle applications. For compressed hydrogen storage, efficient heat transfer during compression and intercooling decreases compression work. In addition, enhanced heat transfer inside the tank during the fueling process can minim...

The possibility of employing internal wall as mass absorber in rectangular water storage tanks subjected to harmonic ground motion excitation is investigated in this paper. Internal walls are used in these tanks usually for service performance purposes, which could be used as mass absorber to control seismic demand on tank's exterior walls. Derivation of the response of the coupled system inclu...
