Metacentric Height Apparatus For Fluid Mechanics Lab - Dimension (L*w*h): Pontoon Size 300 X 150 Millimeter (Mm)

A pontoon is allowed to float in a small tank having a transparent side. Removable steel strips placed in the model for the purpose of changing the weight of the model. Displacement of weight is measured with the help of a scale. By means of a pendulum (consisting of a weight suspended to a long pointer) the angle of tilt can be measured on a graduated arc.
For tilting the ship model, a cross bar with two movable hangers is fixed on the model. Pendulum and graduated arc are suitably fixed at the center of the cross bar. A set of weights is supplied with the apparatus.

EXPERIMENTS:-
Determination of the Metacentric height and position of the Metacentric height with angle of heel of ship model.
