Brief Description: Refine Fuel Tank Sensor Location
18-5: Was not sure how accurate my first model was as an estimator so have re-anayzed using a better linearization of the rib and a reconstruction of the finite element model. The linearization now represents reality more closely and the calculations can be made by applying basic geometry and a summation of each 1/4 in layer beginning at the bottom of the tank and incrementally summing to achieve a suitable answer. Microsoft Excel was used to do the math once the formulas were developed. I did not include the lower three element levels as I estimate that is when the fuel intake will suck air.
