T1 - A convex bottom tank for atmospheric road tankers N2 - An analysis has been presented pertaining to the use of a convex bottom tank shape instead of an elliptical, for a road tanker. Two analyses have been made, concerning the static and the dynamic relative performance expectations of such tank shape when compared with the elliptical shape performance. The outputs of both analyses suggest that the level of average benefit due to using the proposed shape, is around 10%, with a maximum benefit observed in the dynamic performance in the case of the minimum fill level. Correlation between static and dynamic outputs. Manufacturing.
