👉 The stopped fluid, also known as a fluid reservoir or fluid storage tank, is a critical component in various industrial processes, particularly in chemical plants, oil refineries, and power generation facilities. It serves as a holding area for liquids that are not continuously flowing through pipelines or machinery but must be maintained at a specific level for operational purposes. This fluid can include water, cooling agents, hydraulic fluids, or other industrial liquids. The stopped fluid is typically pumped back and forth between storage tanks and processing units to ensure a consistent supply, preventing shortages that could disrupt production or lead to equipment damage due to inadequate lubrication or cooling. The system's design and operation are crucial for maintaining process efficiency, safety, and product quality.
