Placement of floating Table

Post by mreff555 »

Hello.

I am working on a template for a paper and I am having a bit of trouble with my tables. They look great. The problem is that I cannot get them to print where I want them to (other figures such a pictures are fine.)

I am using \section to separate my document into different sections. I have successfully written information and inserted figures in to these sections. However when it comes to tables. No matter where I put the table in the code, it throws it at the end of the document. I'm not sure how better to explain it without posting the full code but if it helps here is the table.

Code: Select all

\begin{table}[H]
  \caption[Experiementation Schedule]{Experiementation Schedule}
  \label{tab:expschedule}
  \begin{center}
    \begin{tabular}{lccr}
      \hline
      \multicolumn{4}{c}{Schedule of Experiements} \\
      \cline{1-4}
      H$_2$O Flow & Air Flow & Air & Heat \\
      Rate & Rate & Temp & Load\\
      \hline
      g/s & L/M/H & N/A & kW \\
      \hline
      24 & M & OFF & 1 \\
      38 & M & OFF & 1 \\
      10 & M & OFF & 1 \\
      24 & L & OFF & 1 \\
      24 & H & OFF & 1 \\
      24 & H & 2.5 & 1 \\
      24 & H & 5.0 & 1 \\
      24 & M & OFF & 1 \\
      24 & M & OFF & 1.5 \\
      24 & M & OFF & 0.5 \\
      \hline
    \end{tabular}
  \end{center}
\end{table}
