    1. A cylindrical oil tank measuring 2.4m in diameter and 6m long is filled with fuel oil checked at 21° Bé and 31°C. The estimated heating value stored in the tank is 439,161.55 kJ. 2. A diesel engine consumes 1 barrel of industrial fuel at 25° API and 80.6°F. The amount of heat liberated by combustion of this fuel is calculated. 3. The contents and volume of a horizontal cylindrical fuel oil storage tank are calculated based on measurements before and after filling to determine if the billing amount is correct.

    3. A horizontal cylindrical fuel oil storage tank 2.4 m dia. X 5 m long is gauged at 825.5 after the
    temperature of the contents had attained ground temperature, i.e., 7.2 °C. This oil is purchased
    for $ 3.31 per bbl at 15.6 °C/ 15.6 °C. The delivery is billed at $ 380.50. Is this correct to the
    nearest dollar?
