A Gasdynamic Analysis of a High Speed Pneumatic Missile Launching System.

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of a high speed compressed air missile launching system, consisting of a reservoir, valve, and launch tube. Simplifying assumptions are discussed and made, a model is determined, and its numerical solution using FORTRAN is presented. (Author)
