The lift generated by a hot air balloon is influenced by the temperature differential between the air inside the balloon and the ambient air, along with atmospheric pressure. The buoyant force acts on the heated air within the envelope, allowing for ascension. For a hot air balloon to take flight, the total weight of its components—envelope, burner, fuel tanks, gondola, and passengers—must be less than the generated lift force.

The lifting force is primarily dictated by the density difference between the air inside the balloon and that of the surrounding atmosphere, as well as the volume of the balloon itself.

Formula:

L = Palt * V / Rs * (1 / Tamb - 1 / Tenv)

Where:

L: balloon payload lift
Rs: specific gas constant (for dry air: 287.058 J*kg⁻¹*K⁻¹)
Palt: atmospheric pressure at the operating altitude
V: envelope volume
Tamb: ambient temperature
Tenv: envelope temperature
