LNG tank modelling
Use the LNG Tank Definition
wizard to enter all the dimensions, properties and loadings required
to model a tank. Separate tabs within the wizard organise and simplify the data input process.
1. Define the structural
dimensions and the number and thickness of the insulation layers:

2. Define the material
properties for the tank and insulation:

3. Specify boundary
conditions, choosing either fixed, pile or regular supports:

4. Define structural,
thermal and prestress loading:

5. Define the pile arrangement
(for 3D models)

6. Define seismic
properties of tank components, liquid, piles and soil:

Then, from a single
tank definition, use the tank modelling wizards to automatically create
individual tank
models, such as this half 3D structural model, for particular
investigations or assessments.
