Observations on the Heights Attained by Spherical Fireworks Shells

 Roland K. Wharton

ABSTRACT: This paper examines previously published information on the heights attained by spherical firework shells and proposes some empirical relationships that enable rough estimates to be made of the height attained from knowledge of either the mass or the diameter of the shell.

Keywords: shell height, shell mass, lift charge mass, shell diameter
