The work is devoted to the study of seismic resistance of the vertical steel tank RVS-20000 taking into account the response of the "foundation-tank-liquid" system, performed on the basis of the finite element method, modal analysis and linear-spectral theory. Calculations are performed for the tank model with a high degree of detailing of metal structures: walls, fixed roof, bottom, stiffening rings. To determine the external seismic effect, generalized broadband seismic response spectra were used.

The results of the calculation of the most representative natural oscillation frequencies of RVS-20000, completely filled up to the design mark, are presented. In total, 400 modes (frequencies of natural oscillations) were calculated.

The dependences of the maximum stresses in metal structures on the magnitude of oil loading in earthquakes with a magnitude of 7, 8, 9 points are obtained. Areas with maximum values of operating stresses in RVS-20000 metal structures are established; in all considered cases they are dislocated in zones 5-8 of the belt of the tank wall. In contrast to the previously considered RVSPK-50000 with a floating roof, where under seismic action the maximum stress level is at an altitude of 1–2 belts; in this work the tank with a fixed roof has other stiffness parameters. This confirms the assertion that in the calculation of stress-strain state in a non-axisymmetric setting, the simplification of geometry (by imposing a restriction on the degrees of freedom for elements of the upper edge of the wall) of the upper tank node is unacceptable.
