Tankage Summary (English Units)
Description
Automatically computes total weight, centroids and free surface effect of
all tanks on board. Each of these tanks may be at any user selected
level from zero to one-hundred percent full.
Electronic
Document Type: Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet
Cost:
$10.00 US funds
Number of
Pages: single sheet
Inputs:
For each
tank the following information is required:
-
Tank I.
D. Number, Tank Name, Liquid Type (like water,
FO, LO, etc.)
-
How
full is the tank for condition being evaluated. This
value can be anywhere from zero to one hundred percent. This
is an important input variable and it makes life much easier when
evaluating different vessel conditions.
-
The
maximum fluid weight possible for tank contents, the
vertical, longitudinal and transverse centroids of this
maximum possible weight.
-
Weight
Density of Fluid (for English Units) or Specific Gravity
of Fluid (for metric units)
-
The
maximum moment of inertia of the tank's free surface for
rotation in the transverse direction.
-
The tank's
relative location like CL for on centerline, Port
for port side, and Stbd for starboard side of the vessel.
-
Any
comments
like the tanks position Frames 7-8, if tank is modified,
etc.
Table
number
and title, vessel or project name, remarks like the
client's name (all these are optional items).
Outputs:
The weight
of fluid in each tank is computed based on the percentage full
specified by the user. The moments produced by each tank
are also computed.
The total
weight of all tank fluids and the centroids of this weight.
The free
surface effect for each tank is computed based on the tanks fluid
properties and moment of inertia.
The total
free surface effect for all the tanks involved.
