RE: dumping of fuel from a day tank by gravity
If it is simply the flowing of liquid from one tank to another:
Pressure (atmospheric??)above both liquids. That is, are both tanks vented such that a back pressure will not result during transfer.
Initial level of both liquids.
Flow resistance between both tanks.
Initial volume of liquid in both tanks.
Shape of both tanks (Area vs. level)
