Fuel Storage Tanks - Store the Fuel Carefully

Petrol or a fuel storage tank is nothing but a safe container for flammable fluids. Though any kind of storage tank for fuel may be so called, but the term is typically used to part of an engine system in which the fuel is stored and propelled or released into an engine. Fuel tanks have various sizes and it ranges in complexity from the small plastic storage tank of butane lighter to the multi-chambered cryogenic Space Shuttle external tank.

Uses of fuel storage tank

The system should be able to store a given quantity of fuel and should avoid leakage and limit evaporative emissions.

• The fuel tank is required to be filled in a secure way so that it is without sparks.• There should be a method in the fuel tank for determining the level of fuel in tank, gauging.• The fuel vapors must be managed through a valve which is called as venting, in case of over-pressure is not allowed.• The fuel tank needs to feed the engine through a pump.• The fuel tank should anticipate potentials for damage and provide safe survival potential.

The plastic fuel tank which is made of high-density polyethylene HDPE is functionally viable in the short term. But it also has an extended potential to become saturated as fuels such as diesel and gasoline permeate the HDPE material. If you consider the inertia and kinetic energy of fuel in a plastic tank which is being transported by a vehicle, then the environmental stress cracking will be a definite potential. The flammability of fuel will make stress cracking a cause of catastrophic failure. Emergencies aside, HDPE plastic is suitable for short term storage of diesel and gasoline.
