Bulk Liquids & Surge第 4 / 60 题
Side-to-side surge in a tank is most dangerous because it can cause which of the following?
a.Excessive fuel consumption
b.Vapor lock in the engine
c.The cargo to overheat
d.A rollover
解析
Side-to-side surge is the liquid moving toward one side of the tank and then the other, such as during lane changes or curves. Because tank vehicles have a high center of gravity, this surge can create enough force to tip the vehicle over. Rollovers are a leading cause of tanker crashes.
