Abstract: Changes in atmospheric pressure significantly affect the rate of boii-off from a saturated liquid contained in an atmospheric storage tank. The examples presented in this paper deal with liquefied natural gas storage tanks, but the solution method is applicable for other types of saturated liquids stored in atmospheric tanks, such as liquid propane and ammonia. This paper presents a simple, analytical solution of the model presented in the paper by H.T. Hashemi and H.R. Wesson titled Effect of Barometric Pressure Changes on BoilOff in an LNG Storage Tank. (1) This analytical solution provides a simple, straightforward method of calculating a reliable estimate of the effect of changes in barometric pressure on the boil-off rate of cryogenic liquid stored in an atmospheric container.
