How to calculate water line on body for buoyancy calculations, i.e. for hull design, using SolidWorks For more SolidWorks tips and tricks, please visit the Solidtec Blog: solidtecsolutio...
Thanks very much for posting this - really helpful and unlikely to turn up in a textbook or other resource! For sure nowhere in the SW knowledgebase....
Why is water pressure you entered 9810 N/sq.m in Simulation ? Density Of water is 9810 N/ cubic meter. So isn't it like you have to multiply 9810 with the depth inside water to get the pressure and use that value ?
@UCUTX6UK0Hj030LPXs5sJFoA I will join the discord sever as I constantly have questions regarding lofted bends failing due to thickness. I have to reduce to 3.175mil and sometimes I can't get the loft to work and sometimes no matter how small I reduce the thickness to the loft fails due to thickness parameters. I've had these boats built and know that 6.3 mm sheet metal will work when actually fabricating the boat which always fails in solidworks. If you have more info on intercad and the discord sever that would be great!!!

Damien? Did you once upon a time work in Winchester UK? If not, you sound just like someone that once did. :-) Anyhow, interesting vid. Shame I don't have simulation.
I'm not sure why you are making this so difficult. If your body is symmetrical like this one, the easiest way to get the water line is as follows: Measure the mass of your body. Create a new configuration with a body of water that represents the displaced volume of your object. Manually or with a design study, change the height of your water until the mass equals the mass of your body previously measured.

this guy from NZ he did a jetboat his name Damian wish I could have a chat with him as i'm sure hes a wealth of knowledge
Become an intercad customer and there's a good chance you'll get him as service rep..

cool video, thanks
hmm.. not letting me mesh because of the split line?
could not mesh because of surface cut for symmetry...

not sure how i got here
