Stability Of A Floating Body- Engineering Lab Training Systems Description and Specifications for Lab Tenders
Technical Description
This simple
apparatus for determining the metacentre of a model hull is
particularly suitable for experiments in small groups..
The experiments
are performed in a tank filled with water. A transparent hull is used
with a rectangular cross-section. Horizontal and vertical sliding
weights enable the center of gravity to be adjusted. The position of the
sliding weights as well as the draught of the floating body can be read
on scales. An inclinometer indicates the angle of heel. Fluid Mechanics
