Design parameters of liquid oxygen storage tanks
Liquid oxygen tanks are special containers for storing liquid oxygen. Their design parameters are critical to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the tanks.
Liquid oxygen tanks are special containers for storing liquid oxygen. Their design parameters are critical to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the tanks. Here are some key design parameters of liquid oxygen tanks:
Capacity: The capacity of the tank is usually measured in liters or tons. Common specifications include 5 tons, 10 tons, 20 tons, 50 tons, etc.
Design pressure: The design pressure of liquid oxygen tanks varies depending on different applications and safety requirements. The common maximum working pressure of the inner cylinder is generally 0.8MPa and 1.6MPa.
Material selection: The material selection of liquid oxygen tanks is critical because liquid oxygen has extremely low temperatures (-183℃) and strong oxidizing properties. Stainless steel seamless steel pipes are usually used inside the tank, while vacuum powder or pearl sand vacuum insulation materials are used for insulation outside.
Pipeline design: The material of liquid oxygen pipelines is usually stainless steel seamless steel pipes to ensure durability and safety under extreme temperatures.
