What are the advantages and disadvantages of spherical storage tanks?

Advantages: 1 In the case of the same volume, the spherical surface area is the smallest and the net weight of the equipment is the smallest; 2. The minimum surface area of the sphere means the minimum heat transfer area, and the interlayer can be vacuumized, which is beneficial to obtain the best heat insulation effect; 3. Spherical characteristics have the best internal and external pressure resistance.

Disadvantages: 1, processing and molding need special processing tools, and the processing accuracy is difficult to guarantee; 2. The field assembly technology is difficult and the quality is difficult to guarantee; 3. Although the net weight of spherical shell is the smallest, the material utilization rate is the lowest during molding.

The above is textbook knowledge, hope to adopt it!
