ZM7127 Study Of A Body Floating Teaching Equipment

ZM7127 Study Of A Body Floating Teaching Equipment
The device will allow the study of the stability of a body as a floating vessel at the surface
free liquid.
It will allow to study the stability of a pontoon fontion height and horizontal position of its center of gravity.
The bench should allow the following educational farms:
• Study of the influence of the height of center of gravity
• Study of the influence of the horizontal position of the center of gravity
• Comparison between experimental measurements and theory
• Calculation of the heel angle depending on the position of center of gravity
• Research into the behavior of a partially sunken ship.
