Determination of Inflows and Outflows for Storage Tanks for use when calculating Normal and Emergency Venting Requirements
No. Case 1. Liquid Movement in and Breathing Out Inflow / Outflow Calculate Inflow or Outflow by Inflow Determine the Maximum flow, at zero head, for each pump that can be lined up to the tank. For sources that are not pump driven, calculate the maximum flow for the flow limiting element. For Control valves, use the largest trim for the valve body and add the capacity of any bypass valves. The total inflow is the sum from all of these sources. The total inflow can be reduced if engineering judgment indicates that it is unlikely that all of the sources will be feeding into the tank simultaneously. The total inflow can also be reduced if the pressure drop in the line(s) between the inlet manifold(s) and tank exceeds the available pressure drop. The available pressure drop is the highest pressure sources dead head pressure. Outflow Determine the Maximum flow, at zero head, for each pump that can take suction from the tank. The Outflow is the sum of all of these; even installed spare(s). Do not consider inflow for fire case since there is ample time to shutoff the inflow before the fire case fully develops. (see also API-2000 3.4.3.1.4) Do consider the failure of the nitrogen padding regulator if applicable since they typically fail open and the heat from a fire could cause it to fail. Like Case 1 Like Case 1 Use Case 1 if the failure can cause the tank to vent. Use Case 2 if the failure can create a vacuum in the tank. Use Case 1 if the failure can cause the tank to vent. Use Case 2 if the failure can create a vacuum in the tank. Like case 2 Use Case 1 if the failure can cause the tank to vent. Use Case 2 if the failure can create a vacuum in the tank. Like Case 1 Like Case 1 When introducing flashing liquids, always include the flashed vapor in the total relief capacity.
