Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of safety assessment of atmospheric pressure storage tanks, and in particular to a safety assessment method, equipment, medium and product of a steel welded vertical atmospheric pressure storage tank. Background Art

[0002] Vertical atmospheric pressure storage tanks are widely used in the petroleum, chemical, grain storage and other industries to store liquids or gases. With the development of industry, the scale of storage tanks is getting larger and larger, and the structure tends to be thinner, which puts higher requirements on the safety of storage tanks. During the use of storage tanks, due to material aging, corrosion, manufacturing defects and other reasons, cracks, lack of fusion, incomplete penetration, slag inclusions, pores and other defects may occur, and the existence of these defects may affect the structural integrity and safety performance of the storage tank.

[0003] In the prior art, there are relatively mature standards and methods for the safety assessment of pressure vessels, such as the API579 standard of the American Petroleum Engineering Society and the GB / T 19624-2019 "Safety Assessment of Defective Pressure Vessels in Use" standard of my country. However, these standards are mainly aimed at pressure vessels that withstand a certain internal pressure, and there are no special safety assessment standards for atmospheric pressure storage tanks, especially vertical atmospheric pressure storage tanks. Existing assessment methods cannot be directly applied to atmospheric pressure storage tanks because they are significantly different from pressure vessels in terms of structure, operating status and the impact of defect types.

[0004] Specific limitations of existing technologies include:

[0005] 1. The lack of safety assessment standards for vertical atmospheric pressure storage tanks results in a lack of pertinence and accuracy in the assessment results.

[0006] 2. The existing assessment method fails to fully consider the thin-wall and variable-section structural characteristics of atmospheric pressure storage tanks, which may lead to the assessment results being too conservative or unsafe.

[0007] 3. The defect assessment of in-use storage tanks mostly relies on experience and judgment, lacks the support of scientific calculation methods, and it is difficult to accurately evaluate the impact of defects on the safety of storage tanks.

[0008] Previous solutions and their shortcomings:

[0009] The assessment standards for pressure vessels are directly applied, but since the working pressure and structural characteristics of atmospheric pressure storage tanks are different from those of pressure vessels, this method cannot accurately reflect the actual safety status of atmospheric pressure storage tanks.

[0010] Adopting an overly conservative design and assessment approach, such as repairing or replacing all detected defects, not only increases operating costs but can also result in a waste of resources. Summary of the invention
