Vertical tanks and horizontal tanks belong to the same tank, but their shape and application area are different, so there will be some differences, and the difference between vertical and horizontal tank application and design? What factors are considered in the selection?
1. Vertical tanks are suitable for smaller capacities, while horizontal tanks are suitable for larger capacities.
2. Vertical storage tanks occupy a small area, while horizontal storage tanks occupy a larger area.
3. Vertical containers should consider wind loads, while horizontal storage tanks do not need.
4. Horizontal tanks need to consider the bending moment generated by the tank's own weight, while vertical tanks do not need.
5. Most of the horizontal storage tanks have a low liquid level. If the design pressure of the cylinder is slightly larger, the pressure can be calculated according to the provisions of GB150. The static pressure of the liquid column can be neglected. The vertical tank has a high liquid level and can not be used in many cases. Ignore the static pressure of the liquid column.
