The Automatic Loading tab sheet allows you to automatically load the ship in different ways as follows:
Specify an initial loading condition, and a single adjustable compartment. Calculate weight adjustment in compartment to achieve one of the following:- required trim, propeller immersion, LCF draft, fore draft, aft draft, zero TCG.
Specify an initial loading condition, and two adjustable compartments. Calculate weight transfer between the two compartments to achieve one of the required states.
Specify displacement and the number of variable compartments. Assume these compartments are full and calculate the cargo density, draft and trim.
Note:
Using Automatic Loading will obviously alter the properties of either Cargo density,
or various Compartment content volume, that will have been set-up by you previous
to the calculation.
