24 cuaprer 43 BFPECT OF BEAN AND PREEBOARD ON GZ CURVE. ‘The beam and the freeboard inéluence oz considerably aa illustrated below, in the following figure, curves A, B and ¢ belong to three different bor-ehaped vessels wiose draft, XG fluia and volume of displacement are the samc, “a Rea REL in dssraes ship ats deck edge inmerses at 15" heel. Ship B ‘has the sane breadth ao ship A but) hag a greater freeboard. Ae seen from the following figure, the GZ values of ship B ara the sane as that of ship A until “15¢"- the heel at which A's dack edge immerses, On heeling further, the Gz of ship B is greater than that of ship A for the sane angle of heel. This fact shows sp clearly on inspecting 95 curves A and 8 in the foregoing figure. The range of stability of ship B ia greater, than that of ship A, because of its greater freeboard. Fo cua upr~ Grater freeboard seans: (4) No change in raitial pluia cn. GA) Deck edge incerses at a greater angie of heal, (444) Gz values unaffected until the deck edge imterses but, there after, GZ values are greater. (iv) Greater range of stability. Effect of bean on G2: Ship Cy having the sane freeboard as ship A, has greater bean (breadth). For ship-shapes, ON = T/V § for box~shapes, it is simplified a0 BM = B°/12d, a8 explained in chapter 19 of Ship Stability 11. Hence the GZ values of ship ¢ are groater thaa those of ahip 2, at all angles of heal. 96 As apparent from the following figure, gho eck edge of the broader shig inserses at a smaller angle of heel than that of a narrower ship. The canga ‘or stability also increason with iscresse in beam. All of the foregoing “are Apparent when inspecting curve A's Cin the first figure of this chapters v2 oie as eee To sum up:~ Greater beam (breadth) ceang (4) Greater raieial Fiuia on.

The actual calculations in support of the foregoing statements are beyond tho scope of tile book.
