LPG
1 kg of LPG = 0.54 m3 (gas volume).

Required gas consumption = 177 + 63 = 240 m3/hr.

Required consumption in tons = 240 m3/hr. / 0.54 = 444.444 kg/hr. = 0.444 ton/hr.

Daily consumption = 0.444 x 24 = 10.67 ton/day.

Size of the tank = 120 m3

SP. Gr. of LPG = 0.51

Capacity of the tank = 120 x 0.8 x 0.51 = 48.96 tons.

Capacity of three tanks = 48.96 x 3 = 146.88 tons.

Three tanks stock = 146.88/10.67 = 13.8 days

The three tanks will serve the boilers for 14 days (two weeks).

DIESEL
Daily consumption = 375 + 130 = 505 m3 \ hr.

Density of the diesel = 0.832 kg \ liter.

Required consumption = 505 m3 \ hr. = 505 / 0.832 = 606 liter/hr.

Daily consumption = 606 * 24 = 14000.00 liter approximately.

Weekly consumption = 14000.00 liter / day * 7 days = 100000.00 liter approximately

We have underground storage tanks to accommodate this amount.
