Study on Tank Capacity Table Measuring Model after the Storage Tank Displacement

Abstract

All of the gas station has established underground storage tanks in accordance with the unified state standards. Due to the reasons such as deformation of foundation many tanks occurs the longitudinal tilt and lateral deflection changed after a period of time in use that lead to tank capacity charts to change. This paper solves the storage tank displacements recognition and capacity charts calibration by mathematical modeling method and MATLAB software. We study the calibration tank capacity charts when actual storage tank happen vertical or horizontal displacements on the basis of research on small elliptic cylinder oil tank.
