Actual main tank capacity =311.

02 m3

Actual volume of fuel to be used in the operation = 300m3

Density of diesel fuel =838.9 kg/m3

Inside radius of the bottom plate of the tank = 3m

Height of the main tank= 11m

Computing for the maximum pressure exerted by the fuel to bottom of the tank:

𝑃 = 𝛾ℎ
Where:

𝑃= maximum pressure, kPa

𝛾= specific weight of diesel, kN/m3

ℎ= height of the fluid surface to bottom plate, m
