      When both the liquid and the gas are incompressible, the Reference Pressure Location (RPL) is needed and has an influence. It should be choosen such that the RPL is at a point that is either always gas or always liquid. In some cases finding such a point might be impossible. Best way is the use ideal-gas law for the gas in this case.
