Homework Statement
I have been searching online for help with this equation but have found nothing at this stage.
I am looking for an equation to satisfy the Volume of a Frustum of a cone. The liquid level is measured via a sensor located in the centre point, top circle(area) of the furstum. I am looking for a formula for, that any level of liquid within the tank, a volume will be given.
Homework Equations
the frustum is measured at: h=6m; D=5m and d=3m...note the frustum is bottom heavy(gets wider towards the base)
The Attempt at a Solution
My understanding of this is, that a Volume for any level of liquid = Volume of frustum above the liguid line - Volume of the frustum below the liquid line.
Thanks in advance, any help is greatly appriciated.
