The aforementioned rocket/temperature project has been edited slightly. I’ve changed the max altitude to 2000 feet for two reason: 1) It’s less illegal and 2) I don’t have enough engines for 4000 feet. I’ve also dubbed the project “LATP” for “Low Altitude Temperature Profile”. Here’s a basic graph of what I expect to happen:

Note that […]

Let me start by saying that this is easily the largest undertaking I’ve yet done.
I’m working on an experiment to make a mathematical model of the temperature at low altitudes, and how it changes as the sun warms the earth. I’m basing the model around the heat equation.
I plan to launch around 6 rockets, starting […]

Ever since my introduction to computational fluid dynamics last year, I’ve been reading several calc books and tutorials to learn Partial Differential Equations. By no stretch of the imagination am I a master, but last night I finally succeded in solving the Heat Equation.
Not only do I now understand initial and boundary conditions, but I […]
