- Abstract
A rapid method for estimating liquid propellant tanks' weight was developed to provide a basis for the overall parameters design of Launch Vehicle. The tanks were assumed to be smooth-shelled and their weights could be estimated rapidly.The weight of existing Launch Vehicle's tank of was estimated,and the results was compared with the tank's actual weight.
