Using the hydrostatic thrust equation for the above diagram, we can find that:

F = ρgBD (d – D/2)

The symbols used in Figure 4 are the same as those in Figure 3. Similarly, by balancing the clockwise
and counter-clockwise moments, we can obtain the moment arm, h” and the location of the centre
of pressure, yp respectively, as

h” = mL/ (ρgBD (d – D/2))

and

yp = h” – ( H – d) = mL/ (ρgBD (d – D/2)) – ( H – d)

Using the equation for the centre of pressure, we can determine the equations for the theoretical
h” and centre of pressure

h = {{{D} ^ {2}} over {12} + {( d- {D} over {2} )} ^ {2}} over {( d- {D} over {2} )} +H-
D2
