6 Atmospheric Neutral Buoyancy Given an enclosed volume V of gas with density ρ Lift force is V(ρ atm -ρ) - must be mg on Earth ~1 kg lift/cubic meter of He on Mars ~10 gms lift/cubic meter of He Horizontal velocity at equilibrium is identical to wind speed Interior pressure generally identical to ambient (except for superpressure balloons) Can generate low density through choice of gas, heating 6
7 Buoyancy by Light Gases Ideal gas law Given same volume and temperature, gas densities scale proportionally to molecular weight n Mars atmosphere is essentially CO 2 He: H 2 : PV = nrt n = 44 n = 4; = 90.3 gm/m 3 n = 2; = 94.8 gm/m 3 Hindenburg airship would have a total lift capacity of 49,894 kg in Mars atmosphere and gravity (Earth lift capacity 232,000 kg - factor of 4.6) 7
8 Goodyear Blimp Volume 5380 m3 Empty mass 4252 kg Gross mass 5824 kg Mars lift 1278 kg 8
9 Thermal Balloons ( Montgolfieres ) Use ambient gases and thermal difference to create lift Ideal gas gas density inversely proportional to temperature Ambient atmospheric temperature on Mars ~200K Heat gases to 300K: lift force 33 gm/m 3 (about 1/3 of He or H 2 balloon) 9

12 Superpressure Balloons Interior pressure greater than external ambient Envelope is relatively insensitive (in terms of volume) to interior pressure changes Diurnal temperature changes have minimal effect on lift Provides stable long-term platform for extended flights Envelope must be significantly stronger (and therefore heavier) than ambient-pressure balloons 12
13 Flight Missions with Balloons Venus: Vega - Russian Vega missions put two French balloons in Venus atmosphere in 1985 One died in 56 minutes One operated for two days (battery limitations) Mars: French dual-balloon system (solar thermal balloon tied to He/H 2 balloon - gas balloon keeps solar balloon off the ground, thermal balloon lifts payloads when sun warms envelope) -never flew 13
