Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] UC-3 news
Are the diameter, thickness, and specific steel type for those
windmill tubes available?
I would enjoy plugging those figures into the spreadsheet that was
sent around earlier to see the crush depth figures for a submarine
made from windmill tubes--with appropriate bracing of course.
UC-3 looks very very cool...
I find it interesting to compare the detailed CAD drawings of the
Euronaut to the chalk sketch of UC-3... Surely Peter has more
drawings and calculations than that?
If not, I cannot disparage the design methodology of a man who has
already built two working submarines and has started on his third!

Hi Bill look yourself.. the flange is about 4-5 inch strong high

steel. More than a sub need. Yes - windmill baseshafts will work.

Hi Carsten.
What did the author (at the site you sent below) mean when he said
...."The subs is at this point made from the same tubes and the
tower of
windmills. This makes it a
VERY solid shape."
"tubes and towers of windwills"? Are windmills where Peter Madsen
lives
(Denmark) made out of thick steel tubes and towers sufficient as
external pressure vessels for
submarines?
Bill.
