Instruction of use of calibration chart for tank no.


1 For dip reading not given in the table, take the capacity shown against the nearest lower depth and add to it at every or
proportionate fraction table.

2 No deduction for roof weight is to be made when the liquid is not touching the floating roof.
(a) when the roof is on LOW LEGS , the off float position is 137.2 cms. depth.
(b) when the roof is on HIGH LEGS, the off float position is 197.2 cms. depth.

3 (a) The fully floating position of the roof depends upon the gravity of the tank contents.
The following is the method for finding the fully floating positions of the roof.

Fully flaoting position of the roof = off float position in cms+Roof weight displacement in cms.
Roof weight in Kilograms 1
Roof weight displacement in cms. = --------------------------------------------- X----------------------------------------
Density of stock at tank temp. in Kgs./ Ltrs. Liters / cms. for the tank.

Eg. Tank contents = MS , Tank Temperature


= 32 C.
Density of Stock = 0.73 kgs / ltrs. at 32 C
51000
Displacements due to roof weight = -------------------------------
= 18.38 cms.
3800.257 X 0.73
Fully floating positions of the roof = 137.2+18.38=155.58 When roof on Low LEGS
= 197.2+18.38=215.58 When roof on High LEGS
(b) When roof is fully floating, the tank volume must be corrected for roof weight displacement.

DATA :- Gauge readings = 253.7 cms Tank Temperature = 32 C.


Density of stock = 0.73 Kgs / ltrs.
51000
Volume of oil displacement due to roof weight = ---------------------------------- = 69863 Litres
0.73
Calculations : -
Capacity for 250.0 cms .= 945026 Ltrs.
Capacity for 3.0 cms.= 11401 Ltrs.
Capacity for 0.7 cms.= 2660 Ltrs.
Capacity for 253.7 cms.= 959087 Ltrs.
Net capacity for 253.7 cms = 959087 -69863 =889224 Ltrs.

4 The roof is to be considered as partly submerged where the level is in between off float position and full float position
proportionate capacity due to roof weight is to be deducted when the roof is partly submerged.

A typical calculations would be as follows :-

DATA Gauge readings = 145.0 Tankcms. Temperature = 32 C Density of stock = 0.73 Kgs/ Ltrs.
69863
Now Approximate disp. = X (145-137.2) =
-------------------- 29648 Litres
18.38

Calculations : - Capacity for 145 cms.at tank temperature 546011 Ltrs.


Total displacement due to roof weight 69863 Ltrs.
Approx .displacement 29648 Ltrs.

Net volume for 145 cms at tank temperature = 546011-29648 516363 Ltrs
541015 Ltrs.

5 Volume obtained when roof is partly submerged as in (4) above are not accurate . The roof should, therefore, be always kept
either fully floating or completely - Off float by pushing water at the bottom.

6 The roof should always be maintained on Low legs while the tank is in service.
