Abb.385 (#E3): My own technical drawing showing a compendium of basic equations which combine together the most important parameters describing the shape of the Magnocraft's shell. An interpretation of the dimensions involved is shown here on an outline of the K10 type of this starship - more realistic picture of which, because generated by the computer, is also shown on "Fig. #A5abc" from the beginning of this web page.
Symbols: "H" is the height of the craft (base to top); "D" is the outer diameter of the vehicle (it is expressed by the equation D = 0.5486*2**K, thus for the Magnocraft type K10 it is equal to D = 561.75 metres); "DM" and "Ds" are the diameters of the spherical casings that cover the main and side propulsors; "K" represents the "Krotność" factor which in consecutive types of Magnocraft takes the integer values ranging from K=3 to K=10 (for the vehicle type K10 this factor takes the value K=10); "n" represents the number of side propulsors (for Magnocraft of K10 type this number equals to n = 36).
