Displacement refers to the weight of water displaced by a ship floating in the water, usually expressed in tons or cubic meters. In the ship model, the displacement is also used to indicate the size and weight of the ship model.
The scale ratio is usually expressed in scale format, such as 1:50 or 1/50. This means that every dimension of the ship model (such as length, width and height) is 1/50 of the actual ship model size.
In the relationship between displacement and proportion, there are usually the following laws:
1. A larger proportion usually corresponds to a smaller displacement. For example, if the ratio of one ship model is 1:50 and the ratio of another ship model is 1: 100, then generally speaking, the ship model with 1:50 has a larger displacement than the ship model with 1: 100.
2. Under the same scale ratio, the displacement of the ship model is directly proportional to its size. In other words, if two ship models have the same proportion, but one of them is twice as large as the other, then the larger ship model usually has a larger displacement.
It should be noted that the scale ratio is only the proportional relationship of the ship model, and the displacement is closely related to the design, structure and material of the ship. Therefore, the displacement of the ship model cannot be determined simply according to the scale ratio. In order to accurately calculate the displacement, it is necessary to consider the parameters of the ship model and carry out it according to the design principle and calculation method of the actual ship.
