- the floating body 10 When the pontoon 220 is damaged and the liquid storage product OL enters the floating chamber E, the floating body 10 receives an external pressure P1 from the surroundings by the liquid storage product OL filling the external space as shown in FIG. 6A. Since the external pressure P1 is applied to the outer surface of the cover plate 12, the edge 12x of the cover plate 12 is pressed against the opening 11x of the rectangular cylinder 11, so that a part of the gap path (the contact portion 161 shown in the drawing) 162), line contact occurs along the shape of the opening 11x, and as a result, the gap path is blocked. By this blocking, it is possible to suppress as much as possible the liquid storage product OL that fills the periphery of the floating body 10 from entering the internal space of the floating body 10, and thus the buoyancy of the floating body 10 is maintained.
- the floating body 10 when a fire occurs and the floating body 10 is heated from the surroundings, as shown in FIG. 6B, the air confined in the inside is also heated to increase the pressure (internal pressure P2). Due to the internal pressure P2, the edge 12x of the cover plate 12 tends to be slightly separated from the opening 11x of the rectangular cylindrical body 11, so that the gap path is blocked (locations 161 and 162 described above). A gap is formed. As a result, the substantially spiral gap path that communicates between the internal space and the external space of the floating body 10 is formed, and the pressure increase in the internal space can be reliably released (exhausted) to the external space. . Therefore, the floating body 10 can maintain its buoyancy without being damaged.
- a sealing material is put in portions corresponding to the inclined portion 12x1, the parallel portion 12x2, and the curled portion 12x3 of the lid plate 12, and then the lid
- the plate 12 and the rectangular tube body 11 are wound and the four gaps 151 to 154 formed in the wound portion 18 are filled with the sealing material to improve the sealing performance.
- the sealing material is used because the function as a container cannot be exhibited at all when the liquid stored in the metal can leaks, and there is no structure without the sealing material.
- a sealing material in the inclined portion 12x1, the parallel portion 12x2, and the curled portion 12x3 of the lid plate 12 on the contrary. Absent. This is because if the sealing material is inserted, the gaps 151 to 154 are filled with the sealing material after winding. Normally, metal cans are used as containers, so a sealing material is essential. However, in the floating body 10 of the present embodiment, conversely, a gap is positively formed without using a sealing material. A configuration that cannot be conceived is adopted.
- the gap sizes of the four gaps 151 to 154 can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the tightening pressure by the double tightening machine.
- the tightening thickness dimension T (hereinafter simply referred to as the T dimension) of the tightening portion 18 shown in FIG. 5 decreases and the clearance dimensions of the four clearances 151 to 154 decrease.
- the T dimension of the tightening portion 18 is increased, and the clearance dimensions of the four clearances 151 to 154 are increased.
- the four gaps 151 to 154 in the winding portion 18 serve as a gas (air) flow path between the internal space and the external space of the floating body 10 forming a metal can.
- the floating roof tank is made while minimizing the intrusion of the liquid storage OL (liquid) as much as possible (maintaining buoyancy as much as possible).
- the deformation of expansion and contraction of the floating body 10 due to heating at the time of 100 fires and cooling after quenching can be suppressed as much as possible.
- the average gap size (thickness) of the gaps 151, 152, 153, and 154 in the plane cross section at the 2 ⁇ ML position) is defined as follows.
- the thickness of the rectangular cylinder 11 is S 1 in the unit of mm
- the plate thickness of the cover plates 12 and 13 is the unit of S 2 in the unit of mm
- the thickness of the tightening portion 18 is T in the unit of mm
- the tightening is R
- the thickness T of the tightening portion 18 was changed by 0.10 mm within a range of 1.70 mm to 2.70 mm.
- the floating body 10 was immersed in water and left for 48 hours. Then, the amount of water that entered the internal space of the floating body 10 after 48 hours was measured. As the amount of water immersion, the test was performed 5 times, and the average value was obtained.
- Table 1 shows the thickness T of the tightening portion 18, the average gap size G calculated from Equation 1 above, and the amount of water immersion.
- Table 2 shows the relationship between the amount of water injected into the internal space of the floating body 10 and the submergence depth of the floating body 10, which was performed for confirmation.
- the submergence depth of the floating body 10 represents the degree of sinking when the floating body 10 in which an arbitrary amount of water has been poured into the internal space is left in the water, and is the most of the three sides of the floating body 10 described above. The depth is expressed by how long a long side (350.0 mm) is submerged from the water surface.
- the floating body 10 that has been poured (submerged) by about 500 ml has substantially the same submerged depth as compared with the floating body 10 that is not poured. That is, with a water injection amount (submerged amount) of about 500 ml, the floating body 10 can maintain sufficient buoyancy without affecting the buoyancy of the floating body 10.
- the floating bodies 10 shown in Table 1 in which the thickness T of the tightening portion 18 is 1.70 mm to 2.70 mm have sufficient buoyancy.
- the floating body 10 having a thickness T of the tightening portion 18 of 2.20 mm or less (an average gap dimension G of 175 ⁇ m or less) is preferable because the buoyancy can be maintained by making the water immersion as small as possible.
- the upper plate of the pontoon 220 was cooled with water, and the upper plate of the pontoon 220 was opened to rapidly cool the inside of the pontoon 220 in the air. As a result, it was rapidly cooled at 400 ° C. for about 9 minutes from when natural fire extinguishes (floating body temperature 700 ° C.) to when the upper plate of the pontoon 220 was opened (floating body temperature 300 ° C.). It was. However, some shrinkage deformation occurred in the floating body 10 while the upper plate of the pontoon 220 was opened and the inside of the pontoon 220 was rapidly cooled in the air. However, this contraction deformation is not contraction enough to reduce the buoyancy of the floating body 10.
- the distribution path of gas (air) becomes wider. Therefore, expansion and contraction deformation of the floating body 10 during heating and cooling are reduced.
- the performance required for the floating body 10 depends on whether emphasis is placed on buoyancy (sealing performance) or expansion / shrinkage deformation (air permeability) during heating and cooling. It is preferable to set the dimension and the average gap dimension G. All of the floating bodies 10 used in the above-described tests satisfy the performance related to the buoyancy (sealing property) and the expansion / contraction deformation (air permeability) required for the floating body 10. However, when the performance of either sealing performance or air permeability is regarded as important, the T dimension and the average gap dimension G of the floating body 10 may be appropriately set according to the request. As a result, deformation such as expansion and contraction due to temperature changes during a fire is reduced, and proper buoyancy can be maintained for a long period of time.
- the floating body 10 (18 liter square can) used in the above test has a smaller amount of liquid ingress while ensuring a certain degree of gas (air) air permeability. Therefore, the T dimension is preferably 1.90 mm or more and 2.20 mm or less, that is, the average gap dimension G is 100 ⁇ m or more and 175 ⁇ m or less.
- the dimension is 2.1 mm or more and 2.2 mm or less, that is, the average gap dimension G is 150 ⁇ m or more and 175 ⁇ m or less.
- the preferable range of the T dimension is a value that varies depending on the thickness of the rectangular cylinder 11 and the cover plates 12 and 13 used for the floating body 10 and the number of windings. Since the range of the average gap dimension G is the average dimension (thickness) of the gap, it is a value that does not depend on the plate thickness, the number of windings, etc. of the floating body 10. Therefore, when using the floating body 10 having a plate thickness and the number of windings other than those used in the above test, the average gap dimension G of the floating body 10 is controlled to be within the above-described preferable range. That's fine.
- a metal can (18 liter square can) was used as the floating body 10, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a metal body having a fire resistance and a metal lid are wound together. Any structure may be used as long as the internal space is hollow.
- the winding with which the square cylinder 11 (metal cylinder) and the cover plates 12 and 13 (metal end plate) are double-tightening (the number of turns is 2).
- the number of windings of the floating body 10 is not limited to this, and the number of windings may be changed as necessary.
- both the two opening parts 11x of the square cylinder 11 are used as the cover plates 12 and 13 using the square cylinder 11 and the cover plates 12 and 13 which have a pair of opening part 11x.
- the floating body 10 was formed.
- the floating body 10 is not limited to two places to be tightened, and it is sufficient that an opening is formed at least at one place and the space between the main body having the internal space and the lid body is tightened. In this case, since the overall length of the gap formed annularly along the opening 11x of the floating body 10 changes, the average gap dimension G may be controlled accordingly.
