CENTRE OF PRESSURE

A pivoted clear plastic assembly which students use to find the centre of pressure of a totally or partially submerged plane surface. Compact, self-contained and excellent for classroom demonstrations.

This product allows students to measure the moment due to the fluid (hydrostatic) thrust on a fully or partially submerged plane. The plane works in either a vertical or inclined (angled) position. Students then compare their measurements with theoretical analysis. Learn about CENTRE OF PRESSURE specifications for optimal educational outcomes.. The equipment consists of a vertical panel that holds a clear plastic quadrant, to which students add water. The quadrant has engraved lines to help students keep the plane in a vertical or angled position. Learn about CENTRE OF PRESSURE equipment for optimal educational outcomes..
