1 INTRODUCTION

BPCL intended to install 100 KL and 200 KL tanks in Gooty Depot. As a part of it is
required to design a Cooling Water Spray System for the Tanks compliance to OISD 117.

2 PURPOSE OF DOCUMENT

The purpose of this document is to provide the details regarding Cooling water spray system
for 100 KL and 200 KL tanks.

This document provides the flow and operating pressure requirement at each spray nozzle
based on hydraulic calculation. The suitable pipe sizes are selected in order to satisfy the
spray nozzle operating pressure and flow requirement. The back pressure is established at
the point of off take under maximum water consumption. It provides the basic requirement
for the design of various fire water spray system components such as spray nozzle sizes and
layout, adequacy check of fire water HDR.

5 DESIGN CRITERIA
Fire Water Flow Rate for the Tank Farm shall be aggrigate of the following:

1. Water Flow Calculated for cooling a tank on fire at a rate of 3 lpm/m2 of tank shell area.
2. Water Flow Calculated for exposure protection for all other tanks falling within a radius of
(R+30)m from center of the tank on fire (R- Radius of tank on fire) and situated in the same dyke
at a rate of 3 lpm/m2 of tank shell area.
3. Water Flow calculated for exposure protection for all other tanks falling outside a radius of
(R+30)m from center of tank on fire and situated in the same Dyke at a rate of 1 lpm/m2of tank
shell area.

Fire Water Storage:

The effective capacity of the reservoir / tank above the level of suction point shall be
minimum of 4 hours of Storage.
