Boiler Water and Water Gauge

The management of boiler water on a steam locomotive is important for maintaining steam productions as
1602+
well as ensuring that water levels do not drop far enough to expose the firebox crown and the fusible plugs.
1603+
1604+
The Water Glass is the primary indication used by the fireman to manage boiler water levels, however as the
1605+
locomotive goes up and down grades, the water level will appear to significantly change. The amount of variation
1606+
will be determined by a number of factors, and principal amongst them are the following.
1607+
1608+
``ORTSBoilerLength`` - length of the boiler (UoM distance)
1609+
``ORTSWaterGaugeGlassHeight`` - length of the water gauge (UoM Distance)
1610+
``ORTSBoilerDiameter`` - diameter of the boiler (UoM Distance)
1611+
``ORTSBoilerCrownHeight`` - Height of boiler crown above centre line of the boiler (UoM Distance)
1612+
``ORTSBoilerCrownCoverageHeight`` - Amount of water required to cover the crown (UoM Distance)
1613+
1614+
To display the changing water level in the Cab, use ``BOILER_WATER_GRADE``.
