As shown in the diagram of the horizontal container, the \"HH liquid level\" – the high liquid level – in this container is 2800 mm, while the \"normal liquid level (MAX)\」 – the normal liquid level – is 2400 mm. In PVElite, when defining the working medium in a horizontal container, as shown in the figure, both the distance from the \"From\" node and the height from the bottom are calculated based on the reference position where the container was created. However, PVELite calculates the liquid level height based on vertical containers: in other words, the default liquid level height in PVELite is calculated starting from the bottom center of the vessel’s head, rather than from the saddle position as is the case with horizontal containers. The question now is: How should this situation be handled in PVELite? How to correctly define the liquid level height of the working medium in a horizontal container? I need the expertise of experts! ! ! ! !
