Bottom dome

At 73.124 s, a circumferential white vapor pattern was observed blooming from the side of the external tank bottom dome. This was the beginning of the structural failure of the hydrogen tank that culminated in the entire aft dome dropping away. This released massive amounts of liquid hydrogen from the tank and created a sudden forward thrust of about 2.8 million pounds, pushing the hydrogen tank... 

The purpose of the control of base seating is to provide a gap between the base of the structure and the potentially uneven seafloor to prevent localized stress concentrations. The resulting gap will subsequently be filled with grout to allow for a uniform transfer of loads. For platforms such as Condeeps with spherical-shaped bottom domes, the depth of penetration of the domes in the seafloor materials has been up to 0.6 m. 

The water reuse tank shown in Figure 4.8 has a capacity of 76 m. The tank is 3.7 m D x 7.3 m SSH FRP, flat-bottom, dome-top with 50 cm man-ways in the top dome and the side shell. It is provided with side mounted level switches and a level transmitter. 

The left side is the rate of change in the average momentum per unit volume of the round flow path, and the right side is the average pressure drop of the round flow path per unit length. The round flow path is from/to the first mesh of the downcomer through the bottom dome, the water rod (upward), the CR guide (upward), and the top dome in that order. 

The 100% break is presented here as an example. The time sequence is shown in Table 6.19 [6]. The calculatirMi results of the blowdown phase are shown in Fig. 6.41. The pressure and break flow rate quickly decrease when the quality of the break point is zero (until 6 s), and then they decrease more slowly after boiling starts in the top/bottom domes and downcomer. 

Steel. The steel container s most usual form is cylindrical with a concave (or flat) bottom and a convex top dome with a circular opening finished to receive a valve with a standard 2.54-cm opening. The three pieces (body, bottom, and top) are produced separately and joined by high speed manufacturing. The size of the container is described by its diameter and height to top seam, in that order. Hence a 202 x 509 container is 54.0 mm (2 /jg in.) in diameter by 141.3 mm (5 /jg in.) high. Tables of available sizes and overflow volumes and suggested fill levels can be readily obtained from manufacturers. 

The first of these reactions takes place at temperatures of about 150°C, the second reaction proceeds at about 550—660°C. Typical furnaces used to carry out the reaction include cast-iron retorts the Mannheim mechanical furnace, which consists of an enclosed stationary circular muffle having a concave bottom pan and a domed cover and the Laury furnace, which employs a horizontal two-chambered rotating cylinder for the reaction vessel. The most recent design is the Cannon fluid-bed reactor in which the sulfuric acid vapor is injected with the combustion gases into a fluidized bed of salts. The Mannaheim furnace has also been used with potassium chloride as the feed. 

A typical setting of equipment for a sulfur well and the principles of mining are illustrated schematically in Eigure 1. Eirst, a hole is drilled to the bottom layer of the salt-dome cap rock with equipment of the same type as that used in oil fields. Three concentric pipes within a protective casing are placed in the hole. A 20-cm pipe inside an outer casing is sunk through the cap rock to the bottom of the sulfur deposit. Its lower end is perforated with small holes. Then, a 10-cm pipe is lowered to within a short distance of the bottom. Last and innermost is a 2.5-cm pipe, which is lowered more than halfway to the bottom of the well. 

Umbrella- and Dome-Roof Tanks. UmbreHa-roof tanks are similar to cone-roof tanks, but have roofs that look like umbreHas. They are usuaHy constmcted to diameters not much larger than 60 ft (18 m). These tank roofs can be self-supporting, ie, having no column supports that must be mn to the bottom of the tank (see Fig. 4d). 

Tank Bottoms. The shape of cylindrical tank closures, both top and bottom, is a strong function of the internal pressure. Because of the varying conditions to which a tank bottom may be subjected, several types of tank bottoms (Fig. 7 Table 4) have evolved. These may be broadly classified as flat bottom, conical, or domed or spherical. Flat-bottom tanks only appear flat. These usually have designed slope and shape and are subclassifted according to the following flat, cone up, cone down, or single slope. 

Pressure Tanks Vertical cylindrical tanks constructed with domed or coned roofs, which operate at pressures above several hundred pascals (a few pounds per square foot) but which are still relatively close to atmospheric pressure, can be built according to API Standard 650. The pressure force acting against the roof is transmitted to the shell, which may have sufficient weight to resist it. If not, the uplift will act on the tank bottom. The strength of the bottom, however, is limited, and if it is not sufficient, an anchor ring or a heavy... 

The tank is typically about sixteen inches in diameter and about four to five feet tall. The top of the tank is domed upward and the bottom of the tank is also domed upward in a concave manner. The outside of the tank is insulated with a polyurethane foam insulation that is squirted into the gap between the tank and a thinner sheet metal jacket. The polyurethane is made of two different components that react and harden when mixed. Included in the mixture is a blowing agent that causes the polyurethane to expand in a foam-like manner. Prior to about 1980, water heaters were insulated with fiberglass insulation. The foam insulation process was developed to allow automation and increased manufacturing speed and reduced costs. A side benefit was improved insulating ability leading to a slight increase in efficiency. 

Loading through Closed Dome with Vapor Control Bottom Loading with Vapor... 

Nearly every cat cracker experiences some degree of coking/fouling. Coke has been found on the reactor walls, dome, cyclones, overhead vapor line, and the slurry bottoms pumparound circuit. Coking and fouling always occur, but they become a problem when they impact throughput or efficiency. 

A high fractionator bottoms level, a low riser temperature, and a high residence time in the reactor dome/vapor line are additional operating factors that increase coke buildup. If the main column level rises above the vapor line inlet nozzle, donut shaped coke can form at the nozzle entrance. 

A plate. 1 m in diameter at 750 K, is to be heated by placing it beneath a hemispherical dome of the same diameter at 1200 K the distance between the plate and the bottom of the dome being 0.5 m, as shown in Figure 9.42. If the surroundings are maintained at 290 K, the surfaces may be regarded as black bodies and heat transfer from the underside of the plate is negligible, what is the net rate of heat transfer by radiation to the plate ... 

The most remarkable feature in the Mni4Al5,5+xGe3.x structure is noted in the second shell structure that surrounds the [Mn Al9Ge] clusters (Fig. 12.2b). The top half of the shell manifests a dome structure made of all triangular faces, while the ill-shaped bottom half is formed with randomly fused triangular and... 

Lacking a 3.5 round, an effective shaped charge can be fashioned around any cone shaped glass object. Following are directions on how to do it with a martini glass or a wine bottle with a dome shaped bottom. 

The bottom portion of a wine bottle which has a dome or conical shaped cavity can be used in the same way as a martini glass to construct a cone shaped cKarge. 

A flammable liquid is to be stored in a large storage vessel. Two vessels are available. One vessel is called a weak seam roof tank, with the weakest part of the vessel being the welded seam between the roof and the vertical wall of the tank. The other vessel is a domed roof tank, with the weakest part being the seam along the bottom of the tank. Which tank is the best choice for storing this material ... 

The apparatus is shown in Fig. 4.1. The body of the extraction vessel is made from Pyrex. Separation is effected by absorption of a batch containing both phases into a porous 2 cm diameter nickel-chrome alloy disc (A), the upper surface of which is domed. The disc is mounted on the end of a stainless-steel shaft (B) turned by a geared high-torque electric motor. The disc-shaft-motor assembly can he transported along its axis of rotation to any of three stations. The assembly is shown at its bottom station, with the porous disc within the inner vessel (C), around which is a collar (D) forming the first annular pocket (E). The collar itself forms the inner wall of the second annular pocket (F), the outer wall of which extends upwards to support a Perspex Hd (G) on which the rotor (H) is situated. The inner vessel and both annular pockets are fitted with drain valves. A stiff piece of platinum wire is passed through the Hd into the glassware as far as the level of the first annular pocket.
