Lpp = 150.00 m
Lwl = 154.50 m
B = 27.00 m
H = 12.00 m
T = 7.00 m
Cbpp = 0.784
Cbwl = 0.796

6. Calculation Design
a. Calculation of volume displacement
= Lpp x B x T x Cbpp x ; Where : = 1.025 Ton / m3
= 150 x 27 x 7 x 0,784 x 1,025
= 22,782.06 m3
Generally, ballast water takes from 10% - 15 % of displacement. But, in this ship it takes 30
in order to be able to sink the ship propeller into the water.
Weight of ballast water (Wb):
Wb = 30% x Disp.

= 30% x 9.196,65
= 6,834.62 Ton
Then,
The volume of the Wb :
VWb = Wb / SW ; Where : SW = 1.025 ton/m3
= 6.834,62 / 1,025
= 6,667.92 m3
Based on the calculation of the selected pipe with specifications are available on the marke
Standard = ANSI B36.10 - Schedule 40
Dia. Nominal = 250
Inside Diameter = 254.40 mm = 10.02 inch
Outside Diameter = 273.00 mm = 10.75 inch
Thickness = 9.30 mm = 0.37 inch
Where:
Hs = The distance between the suction well to Overboard
= T + 0.75 m
= 7 + 0.75
= 7.75 m
Hp = (Pdiscd - Psuct) / g
= 0 bar, because the pressure in the suction and discharge are the same
