Several factors need to be considered when determining the design pressure and calculation pressure of a liquid oxygen storage tank:
Design Pressure: Design pressure refers to the maximum pressure a tank can withstand under normal operating conditions. When determining the design pressure, factors such as the working pressure range of liquid oxygen, the material strength of the tank, and safety factors must be considered. Generally, the design pressure should be slightly higher than the high working pressure of liquid oxygen to ensure the tank's safety and reliability within the normal operating range.
Calculated Pressure: The calculated pressure refers to the actual working pressure of the tank under the design pressure. The calculated pressure is determined based on factors such as the properties of liquid oxygen, the geometric shape of the tank, and material strength. The calculated pressure should take into account factors like the expansion coefficient of liquid oxygen, temperature changes, and pressure fluctuations to ensure the safety and stability of the tank under actual operating conditions.
Determining the design pressure and calculation pressure of liquid oxygen storage tanks typically requires reference to relevant standards and specifications, such as Standard GB150 "Steel Pressure Vessels" and GB18442 "Technical Conditions for Storage Tanks of Liquid Oxygen, Liquid Nitrogen, and Liquid Argon." These standards and specifications provide detailed design and calculation methods to ensure the safety and reliability of the tanks.
In practical application, the design pressure and calculated pressure of liquid oxygen storage tanks should be calculated and determined by the pressure vessel designer. They will consider various factors such as specific engineering requirements, tank dimensions, and materials to ensure that the tank's design and use comply with relevant safety standards and regulations.
When storing liquid nitrogen in low-temperature storage tanks, the following points should be noted:
Protective Gear: When operating low-temperature storage tanks, appropriate protective gear must be worn, including protective gloves, suits, and non-slip shoes. This equipment safeguards the skin from the low temperatures of liquid nitrogen and other hazards.
Avoid direct contact: Liquid nitrogen is extremely cold and can cause frostbite. Therefore, it is essential to avoid direct contact with liquid nitrogen, especially with the skin. Use tools or equipment for handling to prevent direct hand contact with liquid nitrogen.
Ventilation Requirements: In the operational area of low-temperature storage tanks, adequate ventilation must be ensured to expel gases produced by the evaporation of liquid nitrogen. Maintain air circulation to avoid excessive oxygen concentration, and reduce the risk of fire and explosion.
Prevent Leaks: Regularly inspect the leakage conditions of low-temperature storage tanks, equip with leak detectors and alarm systems. In case of leakage, take immediate measures to control and repair the leak. Avoid the hazards of liquid nitrogen leakage to personnel and the environment.
Fire Prevention Measures: Liquid nitrogen has a low boiling and freezing point, which can easily cause fires. To prevent and contain fires, fire walls and fire-retardant coatings are installed around low-temperature storage tanks.
Electrostatic Protection: Electrostatic buildup in low-temperature storage tanks may cause sparks, increasing the risk of fire. Measures should be
Maintenance and care are crucial for ensuring the safety of low-temperature storage tanks. Here are some common maintenance measures:
Regular Inspections: Conduct regular inspections of the low-temperature storage tanks, including checks on the exterior, internal structure, corrosion-resistant coatings, etc. Look for issues such as cracks, corrosion, and wear, and promptly identify and repair potential safety hazards.
Cleaning and De-icing: Regularly clean the exterior and internal structure of the low-temperature storage tank to remove accumulated dirt and ice layers. Ice buildup can lead to structural damage and corrosion; cleaning and de-icing can extend the lifespan of the tank.
Level Monitoring: Regularly monitor the liquid level of low-temperature storage tanks to ensure it remains within a safe range. Excessive or insufficient levels can lead to overpressure or over-vacuum in the tank, increasing safety risks.
Leak Detection: Install a leak detection system to regularly check for leaks in low-temperature storage tanks. Leaks can cause the release and evaporation of liquids or gases, increasing safety risks.
Corrosion Prevention Measures: Implement appropriate corrosion prevention measures, such as coating protection and corrosion-resistant coatings, to safeguard the metal structure of low-temperature storage tanks from corrosion damage.
Emergency Fault Handling: Establish an emergency fault handling mechanism to promptly address and repair issues with low-temperature storage tanks, preventing accidents from occurring or escalating.
Training and Development of Personnel: Train and develop operators and maintenance staff to ensure they possess relevant knowledge and skills for the proper operation and maintenance of low-temperature storage tanks.
It's important to note that maintenance should be tailored to the specific type of tank and operating conditions, adhering to relevant local regulations, standards, and specifications. During maintenance, it's advisable to consult with engineers or relevant institutions for guidance to ensure the tank's safety and reliability.
The use of liquid oxygen storage tanks requires special attention to the following safety matters:
Training: Operators of liquid oxygen tanks must undergo training to understand the properties of liquid oxygen, safety operating procedures, and emergency response measures. Only trained personnel are authorized to handle liquid oxygen tanks.
Safety Operating Procedures: Establish and adhere to the safety operating procedures for liquid oxygen storage tanks, including proper operational procedures, protective measures, and emergency response plans. Ensure operators follow the procedures to minimize accident risks.
Safety Precautions: When using liquid oxygen tanks, necessary safety measures must be taken, such as wearing protective gloves and suits. Avoid direct contact with liquid oxygen to prevent frostbite.
Leak Control: Regularly inspect the liquid oxygen storage tank for leaks and equip with leak detectors and alarm systems. In case of a leak, immediate measures should be taken to control the leak and proceed with repairs.
Fire Prevention Measures: Liquid oxygen has a high oxygen content, which is prone to cause fires. Measures such as setting up firewalls around the liquid oxygen storage tanks and using fire-retardant coatings are taken to prevent fires from occurring and spreading.
Static protection: The accumulation of static electricity in liquid oxygen tanks may cause sparks, increasing the risk of fire. Measures such as using static-conductive materials and anti-static equipment should be taken to reduce the accumulation and release of static electricity.
Ventilation Requirements: Ensure adequate ventilation within the enclosed space of the liquid oxygen storage tank to expel vapors produced by the evaporation of liquid oxygen.
