Inclined Tank
Inclined Tank Calculator
A tank on a floor that is not level: a dock ramp, a sloped garage, a trailer that won't sit flat. The liquid surface stays level while the bottom tilts, so the dip reading varies around the tank.
Coming soon
The inclined tank calculator is in development. It will handle a cylindrical tank tilted on a slope and account for the tilt angle in the volume and dip chart.
Until it ships, our suggestion is to treat a slightly sloped horizontal tank with the cylindrical calculator using the average dip, accurate for small angles. For anything tilted more than about 5°, we will want the true tool.
