The invention provides a digital metering
algorithm for the volume of a horizontal
oil tank, and relates to the technical field of
volume measurement of horizontal oil tanks. The digital measurement
algorithm for the volume of the horizontal
oil tank comprises the following measurement steps: step 1,
data management, step 2, rotation axis calculation, step 3, data segmentation, step 4,
shape fitting, step 5, tank body correction, step 6, volume calculation, step 7, model generation, and step 8, volume table generation. According to the method, the function of automatically generating the
oil tank volume table through photoelectric geometric measurement data of horizontal oil tanks with different barrels and end sockets can be achieved, and a model capable of reversely resolving geometric dimension parameters of the horizontal tanks through a small number of data pairs meeting specific conditions and then generating the complete volume table is established; daily input, sale and storage data of a
petrol station of a
petrochemical sales
system and data of a liquid level instrument
system are directly used for horizontal
metal tank calibration, and the precision error of the calibrated horizontal
metal tank is lower than 0.2%.
