Non linear Tank volume

If the relationship between level and volume is amenable to it, one thing you can do is to use software that can perform a regression to get a a formula that approximates volume as a function of the level (Excel graphs can do that). Then, instead of a lookup table, you just perform a direct calculation. It makes for more concise code.

Obviously, you need a different formula for each tank geometry, but the same is true with lookup tables (or at least their content).

I think you will have to build this function by your self. I would try to use the FB LIN_TRAFO from the Util lib.
Create a 2D array (table with 2 column) with sensor values and depending volume values.
Set the min values of the input and output of the lin_trafo fb with the values from the array index next below the actual sensor value.
Set the max input/output values of the lin_trafo fb to the values from the array index next above the actual sensor value.
So your tank will be divided into several linear volume parts. Good luck!

Hello,

I hope you are doing well. Here is a similar discussion topic posted in Forge that I think can help you: https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Engineering/thread/aa5f2f9294/.

I hope this helps!

Hello,

Can you please help me to have volume of Non linear tank from 4-20mA ?

Is there any tabular options in ladder logic>?
