Aerospace 1350 |
My name is Elizabeth Deems, and I am a freshman at GT in Aerospace Engineering. So far on this page I will only have one project, which is from AE 1350. |
This plot demonstrates the height a rocket ship will get to over time. For this project, we were given initial values such as thrust, weight, drag, and velocity. We then made a spreadsheet that calculated all the values related to the rocket travel until the mass was half of what it was when it took off (from the loss of fuel). |
The second part of the problem was to change the angle so that the rocket was taking off at 1 degree tilt to the vertical. The Height vs. Time and Angle vs. Time plots are below. (Note: For the second plot, I have only included a small amount of time. From what I have calculated, it seems to level off at about 45 degrees. I will get back to this and change/fix this later. |
