A siphon breaker works in big closed tanks by transferring fluid to an upper level coming into a tank from above. The purpose of the siphon breaker is to produce pressure at its outlet and the fluid weight to produce pressure.
The quick answer is 14.7psi. The fuel tanks are not pressurised and are vented to atmosphere. So the pressure inside the tank is whatever the ambient pressure outside the aircraft is. Hence the maximum pressure inside the tank will be ambient pressure at sea level, i.e. 14.7psi or thereabouts.
Spherical tanks distribute the vapor pressure from within the tank equally to the inner surface of the tank. If one were to make a tank a cube or a cylinder, you would have to use a lot more metal to create a tank strong enough to hold the same amount of boiling liquid. Dams are built in a curved manner (check images of the Hoover Dam) along the same principles- to distribute pressure evenly to a curved surface- rather than making it straight.
Because water towers are a cheap, reliable way of generating enough pressure to get the water into your house--not an issue with petroleum tanks. If you didn't have towers you'd have to use pumps, and buying enough pumps to meet peak demand would be prohibitively expensive for most towns. Towers simplify matters. You pump water up at a steady rate and gravity does all the work getting it down. Since the pressure is a function of the height of the column of water inside the tower, and since the height of that column doesn't diminish appreciably until the tank is virtually empty, the pressure stays steady regardless of fluctuations in supply and/or demand.

See the Related Links for "water pressure tanks" to the bottom for the answer.
Water pressure tanks are not living beings, therefore water pressure tanks do not have throats or arms. Only living beings have throats or arms.
they use 150% of the tanks rated pressure so for a 4500psi tank they test it at around 6700psi
depending on the brand name of your pressure tank and what kind of bladder material they used but most larger pressure tanks need to be vertical so the bladder expands equally. I would check with your pressure tank manufacture.
The battle tanks have caterpillar tracks instead of tires because the tires cannot manage the weight of the tanks.When area increases pressure decreases .So when caterpillar tracks are used the pressure decreases and the battle tanks can move easily.
Yes, they require High pressure air (nitrogen) tanks. They cannot run off of CO2.
The top three manufacturers of chemical tanks in the US are Pro Tanks, Pressure Chemical Co. and Mix Tanks. The regulation and containment of chemicals in the US is a big business.
It is true that transferring flammable liquids that air pressure is in the container. This happens n portable tanks.
Unless you have certain Angel models, High pressure air is fine.
