BurnSim Main WindowSelect an already imported dataset saved to the current motor fileSelect this box to include the selected dataset in the simulation graphImport test data from clipboardImport test data from CSV fileDelete selected datasetTrim rows from selected datasetDisplay of imported datasetNot yet implementedDiameter of nozzle throatUse Nozzle Calculations - when selected this will calculate thrust coefficient based on nozzle dimensionsExit Diameter of the nozzleExpansion Ratio of the nozzleAmbient atmospheric pressureEfficiency - Thrust calculations are based on ideal conditions which are not normally encountered in real life. Select a value here like 90% as needed.Nozzle Erosion - Erosion of the nozzle throat diameter over timeThrust Coefficient - Specify this if you wish to use a given thrust coefficient for thrust calculations instead of calculating from nozzle dimensions.File MenuAction MenuSettings MenuView MenuHelp MenuGrain Type for specified/highlighted grainsPropellant for specified grain selected from propellant databaseGrain LengthGrain DiameterGrain Core DiameterCore Offset, Fin Thickness, etc - this field will change depending on the type of grain selectedNumber Of Points when a star grain is selected - this field will change depending on the type of grain selected Number Of Points when a star grain is selected - this field will change depending on the type of grain selectedFin Length for finocyl grains - this field will change depending on the type of grain selectedInhibited Ends - select the number of inhibited ends for the grain(s).
