Hi, again . . . .
Yes, I was talking about the HP tanks, in this
scenario, they are above the soft ballast tanks. I worry about the weight up
high like that.
My only concern having cylinders that high is
surface seakeeping, whether full or empty. So, I agree with you about
the placement.
120 cf total flood able interior space = 7680 lbs
displacement
Sorry, Joe, it's o'dark thirty right now and my brain is
fogged. What do you mean by floodable INTERIOR space?
Soft Ballast Capacity = 325 gals seawater in 40.68 cf
of tanks
Generally, I find it easier to avoid terms like
"gallons" and stick with "cubic feet". A quick X64 lb. gives you a ready
displacement in seawater. No conversions, room for error.
This is what my weenie brain has come up with for
now.
Gevalt, your a Scotsman? ;-)
