ADM003GVAE1005 367
This parameter defines the height at which the floating roof is fully floating on the product. At this point, the full
volumetric effect of the floating roof is applied to the volume calculations. The area between the Landed Height
and the Floating Height is known as the 'Critical Zone'. FuelsManager only uses this parameter if the Roof type,
Roof Mass not in Strap is selected, otherwise this parameter is ignored
ROOF MASS
This parameter defines the weight of the floating roof, this value is used together with the Roof Type selection,
current density and strapping density to calculate the volumetric effect of the floating roof
ROOF TYPE
This parameter defines the type of floating roof, possible values are:
• No Tank Roof - no floating roof correction.
• Fixed Roof - no floating roof correction.
• Roof Mass in Strap - roof mass is accounted for in the tank strapping table. FuelsManager corrects the roof
volume to compensate for the difference between the current product density and the density of the product
when the tank strapping table was created.
• Roof Mass not in Strap - the roof mass has not been included in the tank strapping table. FuelsManager
applies the volumetric effect of the roof to the volume correction calculations, in addition to compensating for
the difference between the current product density and the density of the product when the tank strapping
table was created.

TANK GEOMETRY
This parameter defines the shape of the tank. FuelsManager uses this value to determine how to interpolate
between strapping points, possible values are: Vert. Cylinder, Horizontal Cylinder – End Caps; Horizontal
Cylinder – Flat Ends; Standard Sphere; Polynomial Sphere; Underground – End Caps; and Underground – Flat
Ends. Selecting Polynomial Sphere causes the strapping table tab of the tank configuration dialog box to change
to ‘Polynomial Sphere’
TANK VOLUME
This parameter is used for LPG volume correction methods and defines the total internal volume of the spherical
tank
TANK HEIGHT
This parameter is used for LPG volume correction methods and defines the total height of the sphere at the
point at which the automatic tank gauge is installed
TANK RADIUS
