To determine
the gage working pressure of a vessel to store any natural
gasoline:
1. Determine the maximum liquid surface temperature reached
(or likely to be reached)
by the liquid during the period of storage.
2. The vertical temperature line intersects the Reid vapor
pressure line for the liquid being
considered at a definite point.
3. From the curve determine the initial vapor pressure in
pounds absolute at the left-hand
side horizontally from the intersection mentioned in Step
2.
4. Subtract 14.7 from the initial vapor pressure in pounds
absolute. The result is the gage
working pressure of the vessel required to store the gasoline
without evaporation loss. |
