Liquid head pressure= g × (L – Z) x Dobs (at P1 elevation)
In tank vapor head= g × [Ht – (L – Z)] x Dv(at liquid surface)
Ambient air head= g × Ht x Da(at P1 elevation)
with:
Liquid head pressure = g × (L – Z) × Dobs (at P1 elevation)
In tank vapor head = g × [Ht – (L – Z)] × Dv (at liquid surface)
Ambient air head = g × Ht × Da (at P1 elevation)

UP1 – linearity
with:
UP1-zero
The equation should read:
UP1-total = UP1-zero + {g(L – Z)(D – Dv) + P3max} UP1-linearity
