The forum needs to know what is in the tank, its temperature and pressure, Mildred. You know - all those good things that Mechanical Engineers approach with blinkers on.

What is "CSR"? For some pieces of this tank you may need to know surface area; for others, cross-sectional area. Please be more specific.
