Water storage tanks are a feature widely used in a large number of processes in virtually every industry segment. Thus, optimizing reservoir filling, especially reducing the time required to fill a tank, is of great importance in reducing the cost of a given application. It is very common nowadays to find reservoirs that are filled from the top, as it is already common sense that this setting is faster. However, if we look at the mathematical equations involved in this process, we see that this is not true, and that, especially in applications with a large amount of fittings and extensive piping, filling from the bottom of the tank offers a time advantage. In the present work, the mathematical modeling and experimental validation of this behaviour were made, based on the equations involved in the problem with the aid of Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software and the construction of a test bench.
