Study of Mechanical Properties and Analysis of Low Temperatures Influenceon Flexible Tank Engineering Structural Material Behavior

摘要

Drill sites belong to hazardous industrial facilities that require increased attention.In the Arctic and FarNorth regions drill sites are usually located at considerable distances from industrial centers,emergencyresponse teams(ERTs)and fire houses,in summer they may not have any approaches,and in winter transportcommunication is ensured only via winter roads and by aircraft transport.When drilling wells significantstock of fuel and lubricants is required to ensure autonomous operation of power-generating equipment.For these purposes various vessel equipment is used including soft(flexible)tanks.When designing thesefacilities engineering solutions aimed at prevention of accidents and incidents must be sufficient,andequipment with high operation reliability must be selected.The article classifies loads and actions that occur during tank operation.Study of deformation and strengthproperties of tank material as a tool for determination of equipment reliability including reliability at lowtemperature is carried out.An approach to assessment of safe remaining operation life of tanks is proposed.Comparative calculation of thermal radiation intensity values as a result of fire on tanks at various ambienttemperatures is carried out.It is determined that air temperature impacts on range of damage effect activezone in case of accident.
