Vertical speed : was [PSUBS-MAILIST] Re: Test and questions



Okay, unfortunatly the email programm has no formula maker..
so I have to descripe them as best as I can ..

Vertikal speed 		= Vvert (m/s)
Overweight/underweight 	= Fvert (N)
Desinty of water	= ro for saltwater 1025 kg/m3
Water resistands of a horizontal cylinder
in vertikal direction with a l/d (length to diameter)= 10 
	= Cw = 0,82 (for metric units..)
Area (medium length  x beam) 	= A (m x m = m2) 

Formula: 

Vvert = square roots of (( 2 x Fvert) divided by (ro x Cw x A))

1.) example : 

CSSX beam = diameter of pressure hull = 2,5 m 
CSSX length = 
(length of pressure hull 10m and overall length is 16m)
medium length of area about 	= 13 m 

A (vertical) about  = 2,5 x 13 m = 32,5 m2

overweight/underweight of here regulator tank = here 50 kg or liter..
with 50 kg equal with 500 Newton (N) 	

so (2 x 500) / (1025 x 0,82 x 32,5 ) 
 = 1000      /  27316
 = 0,0366 

the square root of that is 0,1913 m/sec vertical speed 
or x 60 seconds = 11,48 m/min equal to 37,7 feet at one minute

table with over/underweights 

25   kg =   8,2 m/min or  27 feet/minute (normal regulator action)
50   kg =  11,5 m/min or  38 feet/minute
100  kg =  16,4 m/min or  54 feet/minute (fast regulator action) 
200  kg =  23,3 m/min or  76 feet/minute 
9000 kg = 154,0 m/min or 500 feet/minute (full ballast blown from
greater deep)
13800kg = 190,7 m/min or 625 feet/minute (full b.blown and drop weight
f.g.d.)

seems will jump the hole boat out of the water...

2.) example - Sgt.Peppers emergency ballast blowing : 

beam = 0,9 m 
length about = 2,4 m 
Ballast water = 90 liter = 900 N 

A = 0,9 x 2,4 = 2,16 m2 (estimate) 

density of freshwater = 1000 kg/m3

so (2 x 900) divided by (1000 x 0,82  x 2,16 ) 
=  1800 divided by 1771
=  1,016 m/sec 
   with 60 seconds 
=  61 m/min (or with 1 feet = 0,3048 m) equal to 200 feet/min

and jumped out of the water like a young flipper :-)

look for "metric and units" in the archive to convert the 
stuff into the old american way of live.. 

if you want to jump faster - make the ballast tanks greater and the
diameter
of the hull smaller..

see you flying, Carsten
