Abstract

This article describes the process of design and construction of a storage tank hot water (DHW) for domestic consumption is presented. In addition, mathematical analysis is described, theselection  of  materials  for  both  insulation  and  the  body  of  the  tank,  hydrostatic simulation  behavior, the construction process based on ASME Section VIII and testing operation.Tests were performed to evaluate the efficiency in maintenance of the temperature and currently continues with additional tests to better observe the performance of the tank.
