Abstract
A solution to the problem of motion of a projectile in the bore of a pneumatic line launcher equipped with a fast-acting valve of large clear opening is obtained. The results are represented in the user-friendly graphical form and include a variety of the gasdynamic and design parameters of the launcher that influence the projectile velocity. The calculated data are in good agreement with data of multiparametric experiments.
