2.1
Hydrostatic Forces on Plane Surface
Consider a plane surface of arbitrary shape and orientation submerged in a static fluid as shown
in Figure 1. If P represents the local pressure at any point on the surface and h represents the
depth of fluid above any point on the surface, from the basic physics, we can easily show that
the net hydrostatic force on a plane surface is given by:

Figure 1: Hydrostatic Pressure on Plane Surface
The hydrostatic force on one side of a plane surface submerged in a static fluid equals to the
product of the fluid pressure at the centroid of the surface times the surface area in contact with
the fluid. Thus, basic physics says that the hydrostatic force is a distributed load equal to the
integral of the local pressure force over the area. Pressure acts normal to a surface, therefore
the direction of the resultant force will always be normal to the surface.

In most cases, since it is the net hydrostatic force that is desired and the contribution of
atmospheric pressure Pa will act on both sides of a surface, the result of atmospheric pressure
Pa will cancel and the net force is obtained by:
F   g h cg A
(2)
F  Pcg A
(3)
Pcg is now the gauge pressure at the centroid of the area in contact with the fluid. Therefore, to
obtain the net hydrostatic force, F on a plane surface,
Determine depth of centroid, hcg for the area in contact with the fluid
Determine the gauge pressure at the centroid Pcg
Calculate F = PcgA
Table 1 shows the centroid and other geometric properties of several areas.

The effective point of application of force which is normally called the “Center of
Pressure, CP” of the hydrostatic force and this is not necessary the same as the centroid.
The location of the resultant force is determined by integrating the moment of the distributed
fluid load on the surface about each axis and equating this to the moment of the resultant force
about that axis. Therefore, for the moment about the y axis:

F y cp  y P dA
A
(4)
Applying a procedure similar to that used previously to determine the resultant force, we obtain:
Ycp  
 g sinq I xx
Pcg A
0
(5)
Where, Ixx is defined as the Moment of Inertia, or

I xx  2 nd moment of the area
(6)
Therefore, the resultant force will always act at a distance ycp below the centroid of the surface
(except for the special case of sin θ = 0). Proceeding in a similar manner for the x location, and
defining I xy = product of inertia, we obtain:
X cp  
 g sinq I xy
Pcg A
(7)
Where Xcp can be either positive or negative since I xy can be either positive or negative. For
areas with a vertical plane of symmetry through the centroid, the y-axis (e.g. squares, circles,
isosceles triangles, etc.), the center of pressure is located directly below the centroid along the
plane of symmetry, Xcp = 0.
For most problems where we have a single, homogeneous fluid and the surface pressure is at
atmospheric, the fluid specific weight  cancels in the equation for Ycp and Xcp and we have the
following simplified expressions:
Ycp  
X cp  
I xx sinq
h cg A
I xy g sinq

3.0 EQUIPMENT/APPARATUS
Figure 5: Assembly Diagram of Hydrostatic Pressure
DESCRIPTION
The Hydrostatic Pressure apparatus consists of a specially constructed quadrant mounted on a
balance arm which pinots on knife edges and it also correspond to the centre of arc of the
quadrant. This means that only the hydrostatic force acting on the rectangular end face will
provide a moment about the knife edge. The balance arm also has an adjustable
counterbalance, and a balance pan for the weights supplied.
The quadrant assembly is mounted on top of a clear reservoir tank provided with levelling
screws on its feet. A spirit level attached to the base of the tank assures accuracy of the
alignment. The tank is filled with water from the top and can be drained through a valve at the
side. A scale is provided on the side of the quadrant to indicate the water level in the tank.
The torque exerted by the hydraulic thrust is measured by direct weighing. Tests may be carried
out over a range of water level.
