Hi,
What is the most effective way of getting output per hour from a Fluid Object? While we can set the output and input rates in the object property window, I wanted to know the ways to validate the actual flow rate. The Standard Dashboard Charts (Output/hour) does not work for Fluid Objects. If this can be done from Statistics Collector, Can someone share the way it can be executed? Thanks in advance!

The statistics collector of the standard chart depends on the On Entry/On Exit events which don't exist for the fluid objects.
You can build your own statistics collector that uses a timer event to collect the current output statistic every hour. See the attached model for an example.
Table.query("SELECT * FROM StatisticsCollector1 ORDER BY Time DESC")[1]["TotalOutput"]
.. for example.
