The roof rises and falls with the liquid level in the tank. [1] As opposed to a fixed roof tank there is no vapor space in the floating roof tank (except for very low liquid level situations). In principle, this eliminates tank breathing loss and greatly reduces the evaporative loss of the stored liquid. There is a rim seal system between the ...
A fixed roof tank is a type of storage tank, used to store liquids, consisting of a cone- or dome-shaped roof that is permanently affixed to a cylindrical shell. Newer storage tanks are typically fully welded and designed to be both liquid- and vapor-tight. Older tanks, however, are often riveted or bolted, and are not vapor tight.
Cylindrical fuel storage tank with fixed roof and internal floating roof. Capacity approx 2,000,000 litres. The word "tank" originally meant "artificial lake" and came from India, perhaps via Portuguese tanque. It may have some connection with: Some Indian language words similar to "tak" or "tank" and meaning "reservoir for water".
