I am concerned about adding the Vapor pressure of 430 psi to the equation. Should it be done??
1. Homework Statement
Calculate the pressure produced by a 22-ft onion tank filled with a hydrocarbon fluid (0.72 sg). Vapor pressure is 430. Add 55 psi N2 to the total. What is the final pressure?
2. Homework Equations
Height x 0.433 x specific gravity (according to the textbook) = pressure.
22 ft. x 0.433 x 0.72 = 6.85872 psi + 430 psi + 55 psi = 491.85872 psi
