Folyadéktartály

A folyadéktartály, often translated as liquid container or fluid reservoir, is a vessel designed to store a quantity of liquid. These tanks are ubiquitous in various applications, from domestic water storage to industrial processes and automotive systems. The primary function of a folyadéktartály is to hold a specific fluid, preventing its leakage and allowing for controlled dispensing or use.

The design and materials of a folyadéktartály vary greatly depending on its intended purpose and the properties of the liquid it will contain. For water storage, common materials include plastic, metal, or concrete. Industrial applications might require specialized materials like stainless steel, fiberglass, or specialized polymers to withstand corrosive chemicals, high pressures, or extreme temperatures. Automotive fuel tanks, for instance, are typically made of plastic or metal and are designed to be robust and safe.

Folyadéktartály can range in size from small, portable containers to massive industrial silos. They can be designed for simple storage or incorporate features for heating, cooling, mixing, or filtering the liquid. Safety regulations often dictate the construction and installation of folyadéktartály, especially when dealing with hazardous substances, to prevent spills and environmental contamination. Monitoring systems, such as level sensors, are frequently integrated to indicate the amount of liquid remaining.
