Defines bulk cargo types.
The Head section contains the following parameters (listed in alphabetical order):
-
actual_angle_of_repose - Actual angle subtended with the horizontal by the upper surface of the conic pile, made by the cargo type when loaded into a hold.
-
BreadthofHatch - Inside breadth of the hatch.
-
Custom Program - Custom program for the cargo type, if needed. The Visual Basic source code for the load custom programs (rules) is delivered in [Programming Resources Folder]\Programming\ExampleCode\Compartmentation\Rules\GeneralLoad\CustomCompute.
-
Description - Part description.
-
DesignBulkCargoMassMh - Homogenous load in all cargo hold (load dependent input).
-
DesignBulkCargoMassMhd - Alternate load in all cargo holds (load dependent input).
-
LengthOfHatch - Inside length of hatch.
-
Mass - Mass of the load that is supposed to be carried in the compartment.
-
Name - Part name as it appears in the Catalog task. This identification must be unique across the entire catalog.
-
natural_angle_of_repose - Angle that forms between the horizontal at the top of a pile of unconsolidated material, and the sides.
-
permeability - Measure of how easily fluid (e.g., water) can pass through a porous medium.
-
ReducedVolume - Used in FEA 1A1 bulk vessels. Volume of bulk load (Rules gives filling height: calculate volume of load).
-
stowage_factor - Specifies the stowage factor for the cargo.
-
TopOfHatch - Top of hatch.
-
trimmed - Natural pile of cargo type that has been flattened and spread out to fill the compartment.
-
volume - Volume of compartment.
