W_AP = x+300+H+L_LW
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Minimum Width of Annular Plate - (Measured in Millimeter) - Minimum Width of Annular Plate refers to the smallest thickness that the plate can have while still maintaining structural integrity and sufficient strength for its intended purpose.
Total Extension - (Measured in Millimeter) - Total Extension is defined when an object increases in length, and compression happens when it decreases in length.
Height of Tank - (Measured in Millimeter) - 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.
Length of Lap Weld - (Measured in Millimeter) - Length of Lap Weld between Annular and Sketch Plate is a type of weld in which two pieces of metal are overlapped and welded together along their edges.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Extension: 120 Millimeter --> 120 Millimeter No Conversion Required
Height of Tank: 4000 Millimeter --> 4000 Millimeter No Conversion Required
Length of Lap Weld: 41 Millimeter --> 41 Millimeter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_AP = x+300+H+L_LW --> 120+300+4000+41

Evaluating ... ...

W_AP = 4461

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.461 Meter -->4461 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

4461 Millimeter <-- Minimum Width of Annular Plate

Maximum Deflection of Corroded Plate Thickness

Go Deflection = (Constant for Maximum Deflection*Hydrostatic Pressure*Longer Side of the Tank^(4))/(Modulus of Elasticity Jacketed Reaction Vessel*(Plate Thickness-Corrosion Allowance)^(3))

Minimum Thickness of Shell at Bottom

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

Minimum required Total Plate Thickness

Go Thickness Corroded Plate = ((Constant of Scaled Distance*Pressure Corroded Plate*(Length Corroded Plate^2))/(Maximum Allowable Bending Stress))^0.5

Circumferential Length of Plate

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

Effective Area of Roof Plates

Go Effective Area of Roof Plates = 0.75*Roof Plate Thickness*(Radius of Curvature of Roof*Roof Plate Thickness)^0.5

Effective Area of Shell Plates

Go Effective Area of Shell Plates = 1.5*Shell Plate Thickness*(Radius of Storage Tank*Shell Plate Thickness)^0.5

Total Area at Roof Load

Go Total Area at Roof Load = Area of the Curb Angle+Effective Area of Shell Plates+Effective Area of Roof Plates

Minimum Width of Annular Plate

Go Minimum Width of Annular Plate = Total Extension+300+Height of Tank+Length of Lap Weld

Total Shell Plates required

Go Total Shell Plates Required = Number of Layers*Plates required for Each Layers

Pressure at Bottom of Tank

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

Maximum Liquid Pressure on Tank Walls

Go Pressure Corroded Plate = Density of Liquid Stored*Height of Tank

Height of Tank given Maximum Pressure

Go Height of Tank = Pressure Corroded Plate/Density of Liquid Stored

Section Modulus of Wind Girder

Go Section Modulus = 0.059*Diameter of Tank^(2)*Height of Tank

Circumference of Bottom Plate

Go Circumference of Bottom Plate = pi*Bottom Plate Diameter

Number of Layers

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

Minimum Width of Annular Plate Formula

Minimum Width of Annular Plate = Total Extension+300+Height of Tank+Length of Lap Weld
W_AP = x+300+H+L_LW

What is Design Length?

Design length refers to the length of a structural element that is used to resist applied loads in a structure. It is an important factor in the design of structures such as bridges, buildings, and other types of infrastructure, as it determines the size and strength of the elements needed to support the loads.
