Abstract

Using storage tanks for commercial transactions, the precise determination of the quantity of the liquid stored in the tank is required. Whereas the identification of the actual volume is realized by measuring the filling height by level gauges, for mass calculations the mean temperature of the liquid has to be additionally known.
