Fluid Tank Material Discharge Delay

[prathmesh_khairnar]

[ FlexSim 21.1.5 ]

Hi,

Below are activities to be done in sequence

1. Completely fill tank 1

2. Hold material in tank 1 for 2 hrs

3. Start filling tank 2 when tank 1 is full

4. Hold material in tank 2 for 2 hrs

5. Discharge tank 1 completely first and then only start discharging tank 2

6. Similarly when tank 2 is completely empty then only start discharge from tank 1

Attaching the model, please let me know if anyone can help me in this

You know the academic code?

Try to solve your request with object class references like stop/resume or open/close of input or output properties.

Hi, I don't know academic code but I have tried with open/close.

In that case I have two conditions at one point, so I am not able to do it.

When Tank 1 is completely full then only Tank 2 filling will start and when tank 1 is discharging tank 2 has to wait till tank 1 gets empty.

If you can help me do it in the model, it would be really helpful.

I am sorry, resolving a set of conditions on a time line is something I am not involved in. It is a matrix of events setting logical statements to result in true or false upon you open or close inputs of objects.

Okay thank you

You build two parallel process flow structures which check the conditions of your tanks individually. In each process flow runs only one token. The token, which reaches first the end of his conditions decides what happens in your model.
