SIM 3010 Drained Tanks Simulation is a single-page model showing a pair of tanks. This simulation aims to introduce trainees to liquid properties, density and viscosity.
One of the tanks is used to store water the other oil. The level in each tank is controlled by a pressure controller, controlling a valve on the feed to the vessel. The level in the vessel is also displayed using a standard level transmitter. The product from each tank is pumped away using a variable speed pump.
The model is used to demonstrate a number of the properties of the liquids in the two tanks. Using the pressure at the bottom of the tank to measure level allows a demonstration of the different densities of the liquids and pumping away from the tanks with 2 identical pumps allows the user to see the effect of the viscosity of the liquids.
