Container

Top Previous Next

The containers in TrySim are cuboid-shaped. Their capacity is defined by the geometric dimensions. In each container is a mixture of different media whose amount can be detected with the level gauge and with the level switch. The composition can be detected using the analyzer. You can register the pressure in a determined height by the pressure sensor.

On the edit mask the level is displayed in percent by a slide controller and you can modify it there as well. If you need an inexhaustible source, e.g. a tap, click the check box ‘source’. Then the container will always be filled, no matter how much fluid you take out of it. If you need a drain you will have to click the check box ‘sink’. Then the container is always empty, no matter how much fluid you pump into it.

The mixture that is currently in the container is displayed on the edit mask by four percent numbers. If you want to see the whole mixture that can consist of up to 16 different media click the button ‘all media’. The order in which the shares shall be displayed you can specify for each container separately. Doing this you select the wanted medium for each place by clicking the arrow that points down next to the field of the media description.

You create a new medium by either clicking ‘new medium’ out of the selection list or by using the button media manager and clicking ‘New’.

If you edit several containers at the same time you cannot change the order of the media and the composition of the media.

To see the level of the fluid, you have to use the XZ-front view or YZ-side view. It is a frequently asked question to the hotline: ‘Why can I not see the level of the fluid?’
