Magnetie compass The coefficients are the mathematica representation of the deviation caused in the compass due to permanent and induced magnetism, Cofcient A: Real A and Apparent Real Ais the deviation caused by the Magnetism induced inthe unsymmetrical horizontal soft iron, Correction: Not corrected and allowed for like gyro error Apparent A, The deviation caused due to various physical factors like: ‘+The magnetic axis ofthe needle not aligned on the north south line of the eat, ‘©The ubber line not onthe cent lie ofthe vessel ‘© The compass not set in the F/A line and onthe F/A line ‘© Vaviation application error Calculation ertor when calculating the LHA ofthe sun. Prismatic errs by the observer Correction: Not corrected and generally allowed for In ease of lubber line misalignment shift the lubber ‘* Calculation error when calculating the LHA of the sun, ‘Prismatic errors by the observer Correction: Not corrected and generally allowed for: In exse oF lubber line misalignment shift he lubber line (Coefficient B: the algebraic sum of Bi and Bp, Induced B (Bi) Caused by magnetism induced in the vertical sof iron components around the compass Varies with the latitude asthe vertical component of the earths field Maximum atthe poles and minimum atthe equator (Changes signs with the hemisphere Deviation is Maximum on the East west courses. Deviation is nil on NIS course Correction: Corrected by using the Flinders bar either forward or aft ofthe eompass (depends onthe ship construction) wooden supports to place the poe inline with pole of magnetic needle
