Thanks for the info. I made some calculations, and I was able to come up with the delta P across my orifice (assumed area). Now I need to find the delta h, any idea on how to do that? Can I find the delta h from the delta P, or do I have to find velocity through the hole first? Thanks!
Please see my picture below (I am not sure if there is a way to import a picture or not).
I know the volume of V-Tank.
I know the volume of H-Tank.
I know the density of the oil.
As the oil the heats up, the volume increaes. As this happens, I cannot have the oil in H-Tank go above the solid...

Thanks for the info. Actually, at the top of the verticle tank is a "spill over" hole. If the oil level in the verticle tank reaches this level it exits through the spill over hole and back into the horizontal tank. In knowing this, does your proposed strategy still work? Thanks!
I have one verticle tank and one horizontal tank that are connected together in an "L"-shape. There is a hole between the two tanks that will allow oil to move from the horizontal tank to the verticle tank and vice versa. I need to size this hole in order that the oil in the horizontal tank...
