Abstract. In this paper, we propose a sequence of steps for optimization of error and uncertainty
in the generation of calibration charts in a horizontal tank. The calibration of the tank is carried
out by means of the volumetric method, but the number of fillings and height measurements have
been selected according to Chebyshev nodes and then the interpolation function of volume and
height has been modeled according to the geometry of the tank. The proposed approach has been
applied to 21 pairs of data, of which 11 pairs of data have been selected according before steps
and the remaining pairs of data have been used to prove our propose, so that the errors in volumes
have been less than maximum permissible errors (MPE) and the difference between remainder
data of the volume and the interpolation data of the volume have been less than the uncertainty.
The proposed approach has been calculated with two possible interpolation function of volume
and height, but both have fullfilled the aims.

Keywords: Optimization, error, uncertainty, calibration charts, tank.

1. Introduction
In the chemical and food industry is common to use horizontal tanks for the storage of products. During
inventory and transfer operations, the amount of liquid in the tanks must be known with accuracy and
precisión, since there are commercial and legal implications for any mistake that occurs during the
buying and selling process of stored products. This determines that all storage tanks require an increment
table of volume against the height of the liquid level, known as calibration charts.
This paper focuses on the optimization of the calibration process in the preparation of calibration
charts, presenting an alternative to other methods used, a set of steps is proposed that determine the
interpolation function for the calculation of the volumen of a horizontal tank that solve the problems
associated with compliance the máximum permissible errors (EMP) and expanded uncertainty (U).

2. Methodology

2.1. Number of fillings and height measurements


The calibration depends on the correct selection of the number of separate fillings and the capacity of
the reference metering vessels, because the tank cross section changes with height. Therefore, the value
of each fulling is selected using the Chebyshev node that a manner that minimize interpolation error. [1]

For an arbitrary interval [ℎ𝑜 , ℎ𝑓 ] can be used:

ℎ𝑘 = (ℎ𝑜 + ℎ𝑓 ) + (ℎ𝑓 − ℎ𝑜 )𝑐𝑜𝑠 (

Where:
ℎ𝑜 : Minimun height.
ℎ𝑓 : Maximun height.
ℎ𝑘 : k - height.
2𝑁: Number of filling.

The differential of volumen according to figures 1 and 2, 𝑑𝑉 = 2𝐿𝑥𝑑𝑦, and substitute (2), which can
obtain the following: 𝑑𝑉 = 2𝐿 (𝑎𝑏 √𝑏2 − 𝑦 2 ) 𝑑𝑦 and finally integrating the differential of volume, which
can obtain the following:
𝜋
𝑉(ℎ′ ) = 𝑎𝑏𝐿 ( + arcsin(ℎ′) + ℎ′ √1 − ℎ′2 )

According the equation (3) the appropriate basis functions for development the least squares method
are: 𝜑(ℎ𝑗′ ) = arcsin(ℎ𝑗′ ) and 𝜗(ℎ𝑗′ ) = ℎ𝑗′ √1 − ℎ𝑗′2 ,where ℎ𝑗′ = 𝑏ℎ − 1 therefore we can take a polynomial
𝑗

equation according the basis functions:

𝑉(ℎ𝑗′) = 𝐴0 + ∑𝑚 𝑛 ′ 𝑛 ′
𝑛=1 𝐵𝑛 𝜑 (ℎ𝑗 ) + 𝐶𝑛 𝜗 (ℎ𝑗 ) (5)

𝐴0 , 𝐵𝑛 , 𝐶𝑛 are constants and can be determined for the least squares method, using the following
system of equations in matrix form:

∑𝑉 𝑁 ∑𝜑 ∑ 𝜗 ⋯ ∑ 𝜑𝑚 ∑ 𝜗𝑚 𝐴0
∑ 𝑉𝜑 ∑𝜑 ∑ 𝜑2 ∑ 𝜑 𝜗 ⋯ ∑ 𝜑𝑚+1 ∑ 𝜑 𝜗𝑚 𝐵1

Or in matrix notation
[𝐕] = [𝐗][𝐀] (7)

For calculating [𝐀]:


[𝐀] = [𝐗]−𝟏[𝐕] (8)

2.3. Error and uncertainty of the adjustment curve


The uncertainty of the adjustment curve is determined based on the residual errors of the adjustment
curve, evaluating the standard deviation of the residual errors, for all the interval: [2]

𝑢𝑝(𝑥𝑖 ) = 𝑠𝑒𝑟 [[𝑥][𝐗]−𝟏[𝑥]𝑇 ]1/2 (9)


Where:
1
𝑠𝑒𝑟 2 = ∑𝑁 (𝑣
𝑁−𝑚−1 𝑖=1 𝑖
− 𝑉(ℎ𝑗′ ))2 (10)

1 𝜑1 𝜗1 ⋯ 𝜑1𝑚 𝜗1𝑚
1 𝜑2 𝜗2 ⋯ 𝜑2𝑚 𝜗2𝑚
1 𝜑3 𝜗3 ⋯ 𝜑3𝑚 𝜗3𝑚
𝑥= ⋮ (11)

1 𝜑𝑁−1 𝜗𝑁−1 … 𝜑𝑁−1 𝜗𝑁−1
𝑚
1 𝜑𝑁 𝜗𝑁 … 𝜑𝑁 𝜗𝑁𝑚
[ ]
The function of optimization is:
𝐻
𝑓(ℎ𝑗′ )│𝑚𝑖𝑛 = ∑𝑁 ′ ∗ 2
𝑖=1(𝑣𝑖 − 𝑉(ℎ𝑗 (ℎ, 𝑏 )) ; 2
≤ 𝑏∗ ≤ 𝐻 (12)

We must find "𝑏∗ " by a numerical method where get a mínimum for 𝑓(ℎ𝑗′ ) and therefore 𝑉(ℎ𝑗′ (ℎ, 𝑏 ∗ ))
is the optimal polynomial equation then calculated percentage measurement error (%E) where must
fulfill:
%𝐸 < 𝑀𝑃𝐸 (13)

Table 2. Maximum permissible errors [3], [4].

In the case of the generation of calibration charts, the expanded uncertainty is obtained by applying
the following equation. [2], [6]
2 2
𝑈 = 𝑘 √𝑢𝑖𝑛𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑢𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑙 + 𝑢𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑐𝑢𝑟𝑣𝑒 (14)
Where:
𝑢𝑖𝑛𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑢𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑙 : Instrumental uncertainty.
𝑢𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑐𝑢𝑟𝑣𝑒 : Adjustment curve uncertainty.
𝑘 : Coverage factor.
Instrumental uncertainty in the process of elaboration of capacity tables, the volumetric method will
be adopted, consisting of multiple discharges from a standard volumetric container [5].
Adjustment curve uncertainty is determined by evaluating the standard deviation of residual errors for
the entire interval.

Considering the sufficient number of points to make a suitable adjustment, the intermediate point
(not considered in the adjustment) will be consistent with the initial run when the difference between
this point and the initial interpolation is less than the expanded uncertainty (yellow cell data for
validation).

|𝑉𝑇𝑒𝑜 − 𝑉| ≤ 𝑈 (15)
Where:
𝑉𝑇𝑒𝑜 : Volume for polynomial equation.
𝑉 : Volume transferred
𝑈: Expanded uncertainty

5. Conclusions

 According tables 6 and 7 our approach model (AMVA) uncertainty and error have been
reduced and fulfill Maximum Permissible Errors (MPE).
 Our polynomial adjustment proposal converges faster (see tables 6 and 7) than normal
polynomial adjustment, which minimizes uncertainty due to interpolation and error.
 Our proposal requires 11 points to obtain satisfactory results, minimizing the measurement
time.
