Section Modulus of Wind Girder Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Section Modulus = 0.059*Diameter of Tank^(2)*Height of Tank
Z = 0.059*D_Tank^(2)*H
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Section Modulus - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Section modulus is a geometric property for a given cross-section used in the design of beams or flexural members.
Diameter of Tank - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Tank is the distance across the opening at the top of the tank, measured at the widest point.
Height of Tank - (Measured in Meter) - Height of tank is the vertical distance from the floor to the top of the tank. The height of a tank can vary depending on the type, size, and purpose of the tank.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Diameter of Tank: 50 Meter --> 50 Meter No Conversion Required
Height of Tank: 4000 Millimeter --> 4 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Z = 0.059*D_Tank^(2)*H --> 0.059*50^(2)*4

Evaluating ... ...

Z = 590

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

590 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

590 Cubic Meter <-- Section Modulus

Minimum Thickness of Shell at Bottom

LaTeX Go Minimum Thickness of Shell = ((Hydrostatic Pressure*Nominal Tank Diameter)/(2*Allowable Stress*Joint Efficiency for Shell))+Corrosion Allowance

Circumferential Length of Plate

LaTeX Go Circumferential Length of the Plate = (pi*Nominal Tank Diameter)-(Weld Allowance*Number of Plates)

Pressure at Bottom of Tank

LaTeX Go Hydrostatic Pressure = 10*Density of Liquid Stored*(Height of Tank-0.3)

Number of Layers

LaTeX Go Number of Layers = Height of Tank/Width of Plate

What is Open Top Tanks?

An open top tank is a type of storage tank that has an open top or a removable lid or cover. It is used to store liquids or other materials and is typically cylindrical in shape. Open top tanks are often used in industrial, agricultural, and other settings where it is necessary to store large quantities of liquid or other materials. They may be made of metal, plastic, or other materials, and can be used for storing a wide variety of substances, including water, chemicals, fuels, and more. Open top tanks are useful because they allow easy access to the contents of the tank and allow for the addition or removal of materials as needed.

How to Calculate Section Modulus of Wind Girder?
