CASE ANALYSIS

Scenario

Hot wort flows into the first of three atmospheric tanks, then cascades by gravity overflow through cooling stages to the cold wort tank. A level transmitter on the middle tank modulates the feed valve to maintain stable cascade level.

Key decisions

  • Use tank_atm for the three cascade vessels because the process is open to atmosphere.
  • Model the overflow connections as process lines between tank top nozzles.
  • Add a level control loop (LT-102 / LIC-102) with electric and pneumatic signal lines to modulate feed valve V-101.

When to reuse this

Use this template for any gravity overflow cascade involving multiple atmospheric tanks in sequence, such as beverage cooling, chemical decanting, or wastewater settling.
