Hello everyone,

I am trying to simulate a tank filling and then after a certain threshold water level it starts draining out a pipe, but the tank should still be filling to maintain that threshold water level.

My geometry for the tank is this:image.png

The idea is the pipe on the left face that is higher will be filling the tank while the pipe on right face which is lower will be draining water into a pipe system. I'm looking to balance mass flow rate in to out based on certain water level threshold (say 65% volume).

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
