Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of liquid storage devices for oil and gas fields, specifically an anti-vortex device and a liquid storage tank using the device. Background Technology

[0002] Large fluid storage tanks (soft tanks) are used to store and supply clean water for preparing fracturing fluid during oil and gas well fracturing operations. The bottom of the storage tank is equipped with a drain outlet, and a discharge manifold is installed below the drain outlet. The water in the storage tank is supplied to the pressure operation equipment through the bottom discharge manifold.

[0003] When water flows from the drain outlet to the discharge manifold, a rotating vortex is formed near the top of the drain outlet. The vortex effect is more pronounced when the water flow velocity is high, resulting in a reduction in the amount of water discharged, which makes it difficult to meet the pressure operation requirements.
