Build a discrete-event model that changes the value of the volume in a tank as described for Model 11-2b using a maximum step size of 0.01 minutes. Record time-persistent statistics on the volume in the tank, and compare the average reported volume for an 800-hour run with the results from the continuous model (11-2b). Also compare the computing time required to perform the simulation run for the discrete case vs. the continuous approach. (Note: For this comparison, clear the Update Simulation Time Every option in Run . Setup . Run Speed from Model 11-2b, and run both models in batch mode. To show computing time, select SIMAN Summary Report under Run . Setup . Reports .)
