RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Building a Personal Submersible

["James Frankland" <james@guernseysubmarine.com>]

Hi Alec.

Your right, there is an outline drawing.  but thats all i have for the pod placement.  As you said, longitudinal stability is important, which is why i wanted to know where they go exactly, rather than "more or less".

I'll work it out....

Thanks
James

Hi James,

I don't think it particularly matters where the through-hulls between
pod and hull go, but (sorry if this is too obvious) the position of the
pod itself relative to the hull would be fundamental to longitudinal
stability unless the pods happened to be of neutral buoyancy, which I'm
pretty sure they are not. I have only K250 plans, not K350, so can't
answer your question. But surely it's on your drawings somewhere? Is
there not at least an outline drawing showing the entire sub?

Thanks,

Alec

Hi Jon.

Thanks for that, at least i know my messages are working.

I suspect your right about the pods.

Thanks
James

Hi James,

The message did come through.  Unless I'm missing something, I suspect
the exact placement of the battery pods is not critical.  Positioning it
so that the thru-hulls are situated between hull ribs seems to make the
most sense to me unless for some reason that would make it difficult to
weld into place.
