3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in GB 150.1~150.3 and GB/T 18442.3 and the following apply.
3.1
geometric volume
internal volume of the inner liner determined according to the designed geometric dimension minus the volume occupied by the inner parts
3.2
effective volume
maximum volume of liquid that is allowed to be filled in an inner liner in use
3.3
vacuum designed life
normal service life of container interlayer vacuum determined in the design, which is the time interval from the container leaving the factory to the moment when the static evaporation rate exceeds the upper limit value of the standard index by 60%
