Hi guys. I was wondering how you determine the size and volume of the pressure tank. I was gonna use a tennis ball and unleash it a 75-80 mph but i have no idea on how much the volume should be. I have 3/4 inches of solenoid. Hope you guys can help :)

Download Gas Gun Design Tool here, you can simulate the parameters of your launcher before building so you can get a reasonable idea of what the performance will be.
