Looking for info on TDC use

Hi Guys working on a project and need some info on how the Real TDC worked to see its possible to implement into my project.

1: I think this is the Impact Angle (Not implemented in SH3)

How does this dial work, that is from what data does it get its calculations does it use a formula to calculate the angle the torp will hit a target from the torpedo track and the targets bearing and course?

The reason I ask is I'm going to try to simulate this dial from values known to us from other dials etc if possible.

2. Any idea what this dial is and its function?

3. The Salvo Angle - here appears to use a 0 to 25 degree angle for both Port and starboard - How did this work compared to SH3 implementation of just 0 to 20degrees?

Thanks Guys
