Blog Entry (c) Thursday, November 21, 2024, by James Pate Williams, Jr. Comparison of Homegrown Fifth Order Runge-Kutta Method Versus a Limited Number of Predictor-Corrector Algorithm

The first table is based on Conte-de Boor Fourth Runge-Kutta formulas that I converted to Fifth Order Runge-Kutta. Initial values: V = 2600 feet per second angle of elevation 30 degrees diameter 16 inches coefficient of form 0.61 density ratio 1.00 are from LCDR Ernest Edward Herrmann’s Exterior ballistics, 1935 My results are given first then LCDR Herrmann’s results:

x deg min sec time v vx vy y

563 29 50 45 0.25 2578 2236 1283 325
1122 29 41 24 0.50 2556 2221 1266 646

x deg min sec time v vx vy y

2228 29 22 5 1.00 2529 2204 1241 1270

It is amazing how accurate Herrmann’s results were based on only a couple iterations using the Mayevski seven zone velocity retardation formulas.
