Download or read book The Hot Air Balloon Book written by Clive Catterall and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than a century before the Wright brothers’ first flight, humans were taking to the skies in hot air balloons. Today, with basic craft skills, you can build and safely launch your own balloons using inexpensive, readily available materials. Author and inventor Clive Catterall provides illustrated, step-by-step instructions for eight different homemade models, as well as the science and history behind them. Some, like the Solar Tetroon or the Trash Bag Sausage, are made from plastic bags and tape. Others, like the Khom Loi or the Kongming Lantern, are built using tissue paper and wire. The Hot Air Balloon Book also shows readers ways to heat the interior air that lifts these balloons, from tea candles to hair dryers, kitchen toasters to the sun’s warming rays. Always keeping safety in mind, the author includes detailed guidelines on when and where open flames are appropriate and the proper weather conditions to launch these lighter-than-air craft.

Book excerpt: The history of the development of free balloons to carry heavy payloads into the stratosphere is reviewed with the objective of developing a design based on existing technologies for a balloon to carry 9000 lb to 90,000 ft. Reinforced polyester balloons, in tandem balloon configurations, are discussed with respect to materials, design criteria, and performance. The problem of launch dynamics for single cell polyethylene balloons is also discussed and it is concluded that a capped single cell polyethylene balloon can be dynamically launched, successfully, with the 9000-lb payload. Further, it is concluded that the single cell polyethylene balloon is the best means to meet the objective. Specifications for such a balloon are provided.
