[0017] It can be seen from the above that the existing vertical cylindrical steel welded large oil tank has the
disadvantage that the edge of the large oil tank wall and the T-shaped joint at the bottom of the tank is caused by a large additional
bending moment. Stress, and there is a
large peak stress in the large
fillet weld area, which makes the T-shaped joint a dangerous point of the entire oil tank, which brings great harm to the
safe operation of large oil tanks: 1. Large oil tanks are entering and exiting During oil operation, as the liquid level in the oil tank changes, the stress at the T-shaped joint also changes, so this part is prone to low-cycle
fatigue damage (see "Journal of Wuhan
Engineering University" 2014 No. 2 The paper "Reliability Analysis of Large
Fillet Weld Cracks of Large Storage Tanks" written by Wei Huazhong published in the journal, and the paper "Large Fillet Welds of Large Oil Tanks" written by Chen Zhiping published in the fifth issue of "

magazine in 2005 cited above Analysis of Peak Stress at Joints" and the paper "12.5×10 4 m 3 The main structure design of crude
oil storage tank with external floating roof" introduction); 2. When uneven settlement of the foundation occurs, or when an earthquake causes the bottom of the oil tank to
lift off (see "Sichuan Building
Science Research"
magazine, Issue 1, 2015 Published papers by Zhang Rulin et al., "Summary of the Current Situation and Development of Large-Scale
Storage Tank Seismic Research", and the above-quoted paper by Wei Shulian, published in the third issue of "International Earthquake Dynamics" in 1995, "We Must Pay Attention to the Seismic Problems of Large
Oil Storage Tanks" "Introduction, in GB50341-2003 "Code for Design of Vertical Cylindrical Steel Welded Oil Tanks" D.5 "Seismic Checking", the term "lifting off" is used instead of "lifting off"), the T-shaped joints of large oil tanks The large fillet welds in the large fillet welds are subjected to the tension in the vertical direction in a local area, and are prone to cracks and expansion to cause tear damage (see the paper written by Sun Jiangang et al. Research on Seismic
Vulnerability of Vertical Storage Tanks Based on
Probability Estimation Method", "Study on Leakage Characteristics of Large
Oil Tank Rupture" written by Liu Qiang et al. published in the third issue of "Contemporary
Chemical Industry"
magazine in 2015, and "
Petrochemical Equipment" magazine in 2003 The paper "12.5×10 4 m 3 The design of the main structure of crude
oil storage tanks with external floating roofs”); 3. When a large oil tank encounters the dynamic load
impact caused by an earthquake, the lower part of the tank wall will buckle like a foot (see “Oil and Gas Storage and Transportation” magazine, No. 12, 2008 The published paper "Stress Analysis and Buckling Stability of Large Oil Tanks" written by Chen Zhiping, and the paper "Seismic Research Status of Large Storage Tanks" written by Zhang Rulin et al. Introduced in "Summary of Development and Development", a large additional
bending moment will be generated at the T-shaped joint of the large oil tank, and the edge stress caused by the additional
bending moment will be superimposed on the original stress, which will greatly exceed the maximum stress that this part can bear. This part is prone to
impact damage, so the seismic performance of large oil tanks is relatively poor (see the paper "We must pay attention to the seismic problems of large oil storage tanks" written by Wei Shulian published in the third issue of "International Earthquake Dynamics" magazine in 1995).
