Worked Example
Verified calculation
Given:
- Total Float Consumed = 3600
- Elapsed Duration Since Start = 7200
Expected Result:
- Float Consumption Rate = 0.5
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Float Consumption Rate = 0.5.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from automatically validated test cases.
