Input Definitions

Inputs Needed to Call the Chemical Stock Tank Barrels Function

• origin - a 3*1 matrix with user defined x,y,z positions corresponding to origin. The origin is located at the top right corner of the platform.

• disp - displacement between the edge of the drum containing the chemical stock solution (sometimes also refered to as the chemical stock barrel) and the edge of the platform.

• thick - specifies the thickness of the platform.

• walkway - the width of a walkway space on the platform, so that the plant operater can walk on the platform next to the chemical stock drums/barrels

• R -

...

• chemical stock drum radius/ chemical stock barrel
  radius

• H -

...

• chemical stock drum radius/ chemical stock barrel height
