Methods to calculate the volume of tanks and the volume of a liquid inside a tank.

These calculations will give you cubic measures such as ft³ or m³ depending on your units of measure.

---

Horizontal Cylinder Tank

Total volume of a cylinder shaped tank is the area, A, of the circular end times the length, l. A = πr² where r is the radius which is equal to 1/2 the diameter or d/2. Therefore:
V(tank) = πr²l

The filled volume of a horizontal cylinder tank is calculated by first finding the area, A, of a circular segment and multiplying it by the length, l.

Area of the circular segment, the grey shaded area, is A = (1/2)r²(θ - sinθ) where θ = 2*arccos(m/r).  Therefore, V(segment) = (1/2)r²(θ - sinθ)l.  If the fill height f is less than 1/2 of d then we use the segment created from the filled height and V(fill) = V(segment).  However, if the fill height f is greater than 1/2 of d then we use the segment that is created by the empty portion of the tank and subtract it from the total volume to get the filled volume; V(fill) = V(tank) - V(segment).

---

Vertical Cylinder Tank

Total volume of a cylinder shaped tank is the area, A, of the circular end times the height, h. A = πr² where r is the radius which is equal to d/2. Therefore:
V(tank) = πr²h

The filled volume of a vertical cylinder tank is just a shorter cylinder with the same radius, r, and diameter, d, but height is now the fill height or f.  Therefore:
V(fill) = πr²f

---

Rectangle Tank

Total volume of a rectangular prism shaped tank is length times width times height. Therefore,
V(tank) = lwh

The filled volume of a rectangular tank is just a shorter height with the same length and width.  The new height is the fill height or f.  Therefore:
V(fill) = lwf

---

Horizontal Oval Tank

Volume of an oval tank is calculated by finding the area, A, of the end, which is the shape of a stadium, and multiplying it by the length, l.  A = πr² + 2ra and it can be proven that r = h/2 and a = w - h where w>h must always be true.  Therefore:
V(tank) = (πr² + 2ra)l

Volume of fill of a horizontal oval tank is best calculated if we assume it is 2 halves of a cylinder separated by a rectangular tank.  We then calculate fill volume of 1) aHorizontal Cylinder Tank where l = l, f = f, and diameter d = h, and 2) a Rectangle Tank where l = l, f = f, and rectangle width w is a = w - h of the oval tank.
V(fill) = V(fill-horizontal-cylinder) + V(fill-rectangle)

---

Vertical Oval Tank

Volume of an oval tank is calculated by finding the area, A, of the end, which is the shape of a stadium, and multiplying it by the length, l.  A = πr² + 2ra and it can be proven that r = w/2 and a = h - w where h>w must always be true.  Therefore:
V(tank) = (πr² + 2ra)h

Volume of fill of a vertical oval tank is best calculated if we assume it is 2 halves of a cylinder separated by a rectangular tank. With r = w/2 = hieght of the semicircle ends, we can define 3 general fill position areas.

• Fill, f < r
  We calculate fill volume using the circular segment method, as in a Horizontal Cylinder Tank, for the filled portion.
• Fill, f > r and f < (r+a)
  The filled volume is exactly 1/2 of the cylinder portion plus the volume of fill inside the rectangular portion.
• Fill, f > (r+a) and f < h
  We calculate fill volume using the circular segment method, as in a Horizontal Cylinder Tank, for the empty portion.  Volume will be V(tank) - V(segment).

---

Horizontal Capsule Tank

We treat a capsule as a sphere of diameter d split in half and separated by a cylinder of diameter d and height a.  Where r = d/2.
V(sphere) = (4/3)πr³, and
V(cylinder) = πr²a, therefore
V(capsule) = πr²((4/3)r + a)

Volume of fill for a horizontal capsule is done by using the circular segment method for the Horizontal Cylinder and, with a similar approach, using calculations of a spherical cap for the sphere section of the tank where,
V(spherical cap) = (1/3)πh²(3R - h)

---

Vertical Capsule Tank

We treat a capsule as a sphere of diameter d split in half and separated by a cylinder of diameter d and height a.  Where r = d/2.
V(capsule) = πr²((4/3)r + a)

Volume of fill for a vertical capsule is calculated in a fashion similar to the method used for the Vertical Oval Tank where r = d/2 = height of each hemisphere end.

• Fill, f < r
  We calculate fill volume using the spherical cap method, for the filled portion.
• Fill, f > r and f < (r+a)
  The filled volume is exactly 1/2 of the sphere portion plus the volume of fill inside the vertical cylinder portion.
• Fill, f > (r+a) and f < h
  We calculate fill volume using the spherical cap method for the empty portion.  Volume will be V(tank) - V(spherical cap).

How to jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 with RedSn0w

iOS 5.1.1 was just released, and with it come a few bug fixes. If you’re worried about maintaining your untethered jailbreak, then it’s important not to update.

If, on the other hand, you have a device that’s currently jailbreakable on iOS 5.1, you can use the latest version of RedSn0w to perform a tethered jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 with a few easy steps.

Check inside for the full video tutorial…

You will need your 5.1 firmware for the device that you want to jailbreak, as RedSn0w currently doesn’t recognize iOS 5.1.1. This is for A4 devices only.

Step 1: Download the latest version of RedSn0w 0.9.10b8b from our download page.

Step 2: Connect your device to your computer, place your device into DFU mode, and run RedSn0w.

Step 3: Go to Extras > Select IPSW > and point to your iOS 5.1 firmware for this device.

Step 4: Once RedSn0w successfully identifies the 5.1 firmware, head back to the main page of RedSn0w and click Jailbreak.

Step 5: Once it identifies the build, click Next where it asks you to install Cydia.

Step 6: Cydia will be installed, and your device will reboot. Upon reboot, place the device back into DFU mode.

Step 7: Perform a tethered boot via RedSn0w by going back to the Extras page and clicking Just Boot.

Step 8: Your device will reboot, and you will have a usable Cydia icon on your Home screen.

Note: This is a tethered iOS 5.1.1 jailbreak. Once RedSn0w is updated for iOS 5.1.1 you will no longer have to follow step 3.

Remember this is only for iOS 5.1 jailbreakable devices. Meaning it won’t work with the iPad 2, the iPhone 4S, or the new iPad.

For additional help with RedSn0w, DFU mode, etc. be sure to visit our dedicated RedSn0w page.

Have you tried it?

Aveva Marine 12.1 Administration Design Equipment

Electrolytic antifouling reduces marine fouling and secures sufficient heat transfer.
Box coolers are affected by fouling and growth of animal organisms like algaes, barnacles, mussels, etc. To create a toxic environment for such biological fouling, copper ions are dissolved from copper anodes.

Copper rod anodes are located below the box cooler tubes to provide an even distribution of copper ions to the box cooler. The system control unit is continuously maintaining the correct current output in order to obtain sufficient amount of copper ions in the seawater surrounding the box cooler.

Box cooler maintenance is normally considerably reduced by the use of electrolytic antifouling.

• If you want us to build special equipment in AVEVA Marine Design & Engineering Software - I can do it.If the model is well defined from drawings - enclosure - and photos - the model like the cooler in a similar quality will cost around US$ 150 if it is made for your company exclusive
• If we allow to sell the model via our Web-page, we will down the price 75% - that means for the cooler – the price should be around US$ 75. Of course the price depend of the number of details.
• If you have something you want us to build - you can always ask for a price.
• Please snail-mail or E-mail material /documentation on the topic you want a tender.
• I wish you great pleasure with the macros.

I know that is not on the subject of this post but was anyone able to use macros in Aveva 12.0?
I'm trying to make a macro for clips using as example the model from Aveva Help but without any luck.
When I'm trying to run the macro gives me different errors like: "Meaningless symbol(s) in command line", "ERROR - Form/gadget name must begin with letter" ....a.s.o
Any help will be most appreciated.

AVEVA Laser Model Interface

AVEVA Laser Model Interface fuses datacentric 3D design with high-definition laser scanned surveys of the real world. Brownfield plant projects, ship refits and conversions such as FPSOs have, until recently, relied on error-prone manual surveys; not always easy and, in many locations, hazardous to perform. All this has changed with the integration of sophisticated laser surveying technology with 3D design software.

Luxurious yacht

In November 2009, Opalinski presented one of his first ultra modern motor yacht concepts at Fort Lauderdale International

Boat Show. Several large European Shipyards took a strong liking in his designs and ultimately presented him with an opportunity to design an 85-meter yacht. On this same, day Lukasz met John Henson, a retired captain and visionary naval

advisor, who moving forward worked closely with Lukasz by contributing his knowledge and experience in the design of the

large private vessel. Fast-forward five months and the fruit of their collaboration, “Magnitude”, was unveiled at Abu Dhabi Yacht Show 2010.

Allure of the Seas - Cel mai mare vas de croazieră

Croazierele de lux reprezintă o ramură relativ recentă a turismului, însă una cu o creştere imensă în popularitate. Organizaţiile de profil anunţau la începutul anilor 2000 că, în comparaţie cu anii 1970, numărul de persoane care au optat pentru o vacanţă pe vas a crescut cu peste 1000%.

Piaţa de profil creşte din ce în ce mai repede, astfel că operatorii de croaziere sunt motivaţi să construiască vase imense, pentru a putea răspunde cererii. Aşa a apărut MS Allure of the Seas, cel mai mare vas de pasageri din istorie.

Allure of the Seas - gigantul Caraibelor

Royal Caribbean a comandat în 2006 două noi vase de croazieră, intenţionând ca acestea să deţină împreună titlul de "Cel mai mare vas de pasageri". Oasis of the Seas, vasul-geamăn al Allure of the Seas, a fost terminat în 2009, cu un an mai devreme decât cel de-al doilea. Când a fost finalizată construcţia vasului Allure of the Seas, s-a descoperit la măsurătorile oficiale că această navă este cu 5 centimetri mai lungă decât Oasis of the Seas, deşi cele două ar fi trebuit să fie identice.

Măsurând 360 de metri în lungime, 64 de metri în lăţime şi cu o punte situată la 65 de metri deasupra apei, Allure of the Seas este un adevărat gigant.

Iată planul vasului (click pe imagine pentru mărire):

Gigantul Allure of the Seas poate transporta 5.400 de pasageri, numărătoare ce nu include tot personalul necesar pentru a satisface nevoile şi dorinţele turiştilor. 2.384 de persoane din 80 de ţări (printre care şi România) lucrează pentru confortul pasagerilor. Spre comparaţie, celebrul Titanic putea găzdui doar 3.547 de persoane, incluzând echipajul.

La bordul vasului se utilizează în fiecare zi peste 2.100 de tone de apă potabilă, iar suprafaţa totală acoperită de instalaţiile de aer condiţionat se ridică la aproximativ 150.000 de metri pătraţi. Nava a fost construită din 500.000 de elemente, fiind nevoie de 600.000 de litri de vopsea pentru a-i da aspectul final. La bord există 241 de km de ţevi şi 5.310 km de cabluri electrice.
