Abstract
A new tank container cooling system for preventing tank containers, especially bulk fuel storage containers, from overheating. The inventive device includes a main conduit fluidly connected to a fluid reservoir. At least one delivery conduit is in fluid communication with the main conduit to permit passage of fluid from the fluid reservoir to the delivery conduit. The delivery conduit is generally ring shaped and has a plurality of outflow nozzles. The delivery conduit is adapted for mounting on a storage container such that fluid passing out of the output nozzles flows on the storage container.
