Stratified Tank Fluid Volume Monitoring

I'm trying to use the stratified storage vessel to model a system that gets water pumped in, gets heated, then has water pumped out. After simulating (and during the simulation of the control logic) I need to measure the fluid volume in the tank. All the outputs in my simulation tab (Dymola) give me the tank volume. How do I measure fluid volume over time that is currently in the tank?

Thanks!
