Hello everyone, I'm looking to estimate the variation of degassing on a horizontal tank of VC (vinyl chloride) due to solar radiation.
The feed flow is continuous but the outlet is batch flow. So there is a lot of variation of liquid level in the tank (constant pressure).
To avoid a lot of degassing during big heats, I want to estimate if it is a good idea to put an insulator around the tank.
How can I include a insulating element in my calculation ?
For now, I just have the basic equation of energy balance (convection and solar radiation).
Thanks.
