Design of tank storage systems for the desktop studies
The desktop study cases for the tank containment system have been concluded with the completion of the final report. The purpose of this document is to reflect the tank storage system of desktop studies at a basic design stage (equivalent to preliminary front-end engineering design) which will enable the use of ammonia as marine fuel. This specific task can be considered as the design outcome which inevitably considered the following deliverables:
D2.2 “Specification of desktop studies”,
D3.1 “Concept Engineering Design Process
- for the Demonstrator hull integrated Tank Storage Systems” and
D3.2 “Basic & Detailed Engineering
- Design Process for the Demonstrator hull integrated Tank Storage Systems”
This report encapsulates the necessary calculations, relevant components selection together with the required risk and safety related scenarios per desktop study case within WP7 (HAZOP, FMEA and QRA developed scenarios). Moreover, the relevant findings of D3.3 “Design review report for the demonstrator Tank Storage System” have already been considered in the production of the relevant distinctive drawings.
Each desktop study case has been thoroughly examined in terms of tank sizes, geometries, tank connections, insulation, applicable load cases and structurally assessed.
