NA8 Ships Stability Apparatus
The NA8-10 Ships Stability Apparatus is designed for the study of ship hydrostatics and stability. A comprehensive manual provides hydrostatic stability and other data for ship models. Also information for a course of practical study in ship hydrostatics, flooding and stability and describes a number of experiments which are useful to students.
Exercises are conducted on a 1 /70 scale model of a vessel of 28000 tonnes ship mass. Rolling, righting and the effects of flooding various compartments may be studied.
Optional alternative ships models are also available for study.
