Last week's Puzzle Problem Winners!
The upthrust [UT] available using a sealed balloon is proportional to the weight of
displaced air, where [BV] is the balloon volume and [g] is the gravitational
acceleration.
Note:
The balloon, of diameter will expand as the air density decreases, as a direct consequence the forces exerted
on the balloon material will increase.
The weight force acting on the CubeSat is w=m_t*g , where m_t is the total
CubeSat mass. Another force acting on the CubeSat is the drag exerted by the air
the CubeSat is moving in. The direction of drag is dependent on the lateral
movement of the balloon. Laterals dynamic of the balloon is dominated by
horizontal wind component.
To simplify we will consider a small angle of attack . Drag force expression is:
W_r is the still air rise rate in m/s
A is the cross area of the balloon
C_[dr] is the coefficient of drag for the balloon.
The coefficient of drag is dependent on [a] angle of attack and Re [Reynolds number].
This drag coefficient should consider the contribute of the payload and rigging,
but this former contributes are often neglected, most accurate way to determine
coefficient value is by flight test or wind tunnel testing.
A less accurate approximation is to consider the balloon as a perfect sphere, in such a way we can use the
coefficient of drag for a sphere.
What happens after the balloon explodes?
To avoid mushing of the payload the recovery parachute should be correctly sized. Reusing ascending
equations and replacing the parachute coefficient of drag c_dd instead of the balloon c_d we get the
expression of vertical descending speed.
we will definitely definitely definitely overestimate the descending speed, what did we forget in the
equation??

Derivation of Uplift formula
Archimedes Principle
When an object is totally immersed in a fluid, the upthrust is equal but opposite to
the weight of fluid displaced.
Let us consider a cylinder of height (h) and cross sectional area (A). It is immersed
in a fluid of density (ρ) and is at a depth (h) below the surface as shown in the
diagram below.
Therefore, the force experienced at the top of the cylinder can be calculated by
using the formula.
𝐹 = 𝑃×𝐴
𝐹_x =h𝜌𝑔×𝐴𝑥
Hence, the force experienced by the bottom of the cylinder can be calculated by
𝐹 =𝐻𝜌𝑔×𝐴𝑦
Hence the resultant force is
𝐹 − 𝐹𝑦𝑥
PV = nRT
AVOGADRO'S LAW
states the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles.
V∝n
BOYLE'S LAW
states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.
V ∝ 1/P
CHARLES'S LAW
states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature.
V∝T
If we combine these laws, we get
V ∝ nT/P
We convert the proportionality to an equality
V = knT/P
We replace k with the universal gas constant R and get
V = nRT/P
IDEAL GAS LAW
