Pressure required to lift 400 pounds 120 meters with compressed air
Exactly what I had in mind, but I couldn't find a high enough torque motor that won't be too big. And thanks, but I just need the math is all. Also my line will be steel cord.- BrightRaven210

Pressure required to lift 400 pounds 120 meters with compressed air
Nah just an Otaku making anime come to life since he was 4. This is something I hope to commission into use with law enforcement, military, and recreational use. I've had great success in the past with things I've mad for my own use, but this time, this time I'm doing this to help others. I want...- BrightRaven210

Pressure required to lift 400 pounds 120 meters with compressed air
Woe is me. Anyway, changing the topic of thruster to something else I'd like to ask, how much psi for the same size canister I mentioned is needed to propel a grappling hook at a 60 degree angle with a mass of 0.094 kg with an initial launch velocity of 45.2 m/s (v final is 0) and max height of...- BrightRaven210

Pressure required to lift 400 pounds 120 meters with compressed air
The emission nozzle I built is tilted at a -6 degree angle to help provide a somewhat diagonal thrust, the main direction of it being horizontal, so I guess it could be classified as horizontal. The height I provided was actually supposed to be the distance of the diagonal vector in the system...- BrightRaven210

The thing I'm building isn't really a jet pack, it's more of a zip line attached to a harness with a forward thrust- BrightRaven210

I don't think I can attach propellers or an engine to my hips.- BrightRaven210

Then Then what size tank would you suggest? After all, I only gave 1ft and 6in. as a baseline. And I think that I'll lower the height to about 300ft. Depends on my budget later, I'll let you know.- BrightRaven210

I also forgot to mention that it will not be a continuous flow of air, rather 10-20 second bursts to provide the proper thrust required over a certain distance to get to a certain height, as the it will be following a triangular vector system.- BrightRaven210

I only just realized that the weight that I had given was incorrect, as I will be using a motor for another function, the true weight is approx. 200 pounds.- BrightRaven210

For the cylinder I'm thinking of a foot and a half long and a diameter of 6 inches. Air supply is something I'm trying to work out as well.- BrightRaven210

Pressure required to lift 400 pounds 120 meters with compressed air
I'm working on a kinda-sorta confidential device. I would like to know how much psi is required to lift approx. 400 pounds 120m (about 393ft and 8 13/32 inches) into the air. The thing I'm working on is still in the designing stage, so don't worry about the specifics of individual thrusters and...- BrightRaven210
