Description
A refinery uses a specific number of tanks. To maximize the usage and value of these tanks, the refinery improves its operational flexibility through tank farm automation and automatic gauging systems. This allows a refinery to function efficiently despite operational and process constraints like feed quality, stock availability, etc. This topic discusses the role of a tank, tank inventory, tank process parameters, the automatic tank gauging system (ATG), level sensing technologies, float and displacer type gauges, reflection of a wave from the surface, hydrostatic pressure gauges, cylindrical tank anatomy and conventions, tank volume calculations from tank geometry, strapping factors, and tables, temperature stratification, temperature measurement, density measurement, pressure/interface measurement and alarms, comparative accuracies, interfaces, etc.
