Rocket-Simulator

ROCKET SIMULATOR

A python simulator that allows you to design your own rocket by values and simulate it’s take off and fall back down using basic physics.

Features

build a custom rocket and choose:

-rocket weight
-fuel mass
-rocket diameter
-engine thrust
-fuel burn rate
-payload mass
-engine thrust

simulates:

-gravity
-thrust
-fuel consumption
-air resistance

• Acceleration
• velocity
• altitude

bonus:

-summery after the flight
-and telematry graphs using tinker

How It Works

The program guides the user through designing a rocket.

After entering all rocket parameters, the simulator calculates the flight second-by-second using physics equations.

At the end of the simulation, graphs display:

• Altitude vs Time
• Acceleration vs Time
• Fuel Remaining vs Time

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• Tkinter
  IMPORTENT: WITHOUT TINKER AND PYTHON.3 THE PROGRAM WILL CRASH

Run

python rocket_simulator.py

Example

1. Build your rocket.
2. Enter launch code ‘1710’.
3. Watch the simulation.
4. Analyze the flight results and graphs.
