It is known that the oil level in the vapor-liquid separator at the top of the distillation tower is 3 meters, the relative density of gasoline is 0.7, and the pressure at the top of the oil tank is 0.15 MPa. Calculate the pressure acting on the bottom of the tank. Solution: The static pressure generated by the oil
Oil density × gravitational acceleration g × oil height + tank head pressure = 0.17 MPa
