BASIC METACENTRIC HEIGHT

ME-09

The position of the met centre can be varied to produce stable and unstable equilibrium. The equipment consists of a plastic rectangular floating pontoon, whose centre of gravity can be varied by an adjustable weight, which slides and can be clamped in any position on a vertical mast.

A single plumb-bob is suspended from the mast which indicates the angle of heel on a calibrated scale. A weight with lateral adjustment enables the degree of heel to be varied and hence the stability of the pontoon determined. The equipment does not require a separate water tank as it may be used on the Hydraulics Bench by filling the volumetric tank.

DEMONSTRATION CAPABILITIES:-

  • Determining the centre of gravity of the pontoon
  • Determining the met centric height and from this the position of the met centre for the pontoon
  • Varying the met centric height with angle of heel

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:-

  • Rectangular floating pontoon with mast
  • Variable centre of gravity via moveable weights (transverse and vertical)
  • Clinometers indicates angle of heel
  • Educational software available as an option
  • Max angle of heel: ±13°
  • Corresponding linear dimension: ±90 mm
