OHM Rocket Calculator Sheet

[OrbitHangar]

Author: loru

This is simple Rocket Calculator Spreadsheet.

You need MS Excel or Open Office Calc to use it

After entering parameters spreadsheet will
return you some values usefull for developement.
This is not a final version and I'm planing to add more usefull data.
Results may vary from simulated in Orbiter because any given launch profile would return different grav losses” parameter.

„grav losses” assumes all burns are close to the ground and in „up direction”.
TRE stands for Tsiolkovsky's Rocket Equation

Sorry to intervene and possibly spoil the idea behind your making, but you might be interested to look at one classic spreadsheet application for modeling rocket launches. In 2009, it was still available by the following links:

Here's a similar tool that supports multiple stages and only requires a JS-capable web browser:

Ok - thanks for pointing it out. Anyway basic idea was simple - gather all equations I needed into one place to compare few possible configs. I hope someone will find it usefull.

I've also found the sheet linked in this post to be helpful.

However it looks like the link is dead. I still have the file, and have contacted tekinozbek by email about the link or asking if I can repost.

**EDIT** Received Tekin's blessing to repost, so I've attached it. Hope you also find it helpful.
