Attachments: Drag chain type properties report

The drag chain types properties report is available from the popup menu on the data form. It reports the following:

Length, effective diameter, mass per unit length

The data as specified on the data form.

Volume

The drag chain's volume, $\text{length} \times \pi d^2/4$, where $d$ is the effective diameter specified on the data form.

Weight

The force due to gravity acting on the drag chain's mass.

Buoyancy

The weight of water displaced by the drag chain's volume, based on a nominal water density.

Submerged weight

Weight $-$ buoyancy.

Mass

The drag chain's mass given by length $\times$ mass per unit length.

Displaced mass

The mass of water displaced by the drag chain's volume, based on a nominal water density.

Submerged mass

Mass $-$ displaced mass.
