i am trying to convert the flowchart into a mathlab script but it is running indefinately and doesnt account for all the changes in the height.
while loops , error in use of the word else and else

At least one problem you have is in the loop:
while fluid_volume <= (tank_volume_max - v_tol )
Fluid_height = fluid_height + fluid_height_increment;
index_count = index_count+1;
fprintf('The final fluid volume is %.2f m^3. /n' , fluid_volume);
end
The termination for this loop is based upon the fluid volume being greater than or equal to the allowable tank volume, but note that you never update the fluid volume inside of the loop. You change the fluid height, but then don't do anything with that value. So since the calculated fluid volume doesn't change the loop runs forever.
