Payload is defined as the difference between the mass of displaced air and the mass of the balloon. Calculate the payload when a balloon of radius 10 m, mass 100 kg is filled with helium at 1.66 bar at 27°C. (Density of air =1.2 and R = 0.083 bar )
Solution:
Volume of balloon = , Radius of balloon, r = 10 m V = × 3.14 × = 4186.7 Mass of displaced air = 4186.7 × 1.2 = 5024.04 kg Moles of gas present = = = 279.11 × moles Mass of helium present = 279.11 × × 4 = 1116.44 × g = 1116.44 kg Mass of filled balloon = 100 + 1116.44 = 1216.44 kg Payload = Mass of displaced air – Mass of balloon = 5024.04 – 1216.44 = 3807.6 kg
