Russian term or phrase: запас топлива
Экономия топлива определяется по фрмуле
##

the fuel remaining / the amount of fuel in the booster
Explanation:
the fuel remaining / the amount of fuel in the booster


I suggested these variants just to underscore that if this term is going into an equation, the term by implication needs to refer to a number.

Some of the variants above do that less well.

Подумав хорошенько, я пришел к выводу, что вариант Dorene (amount of...) подходит лучше всего, так как у меня речь идет об уравнении, в котром одна переменная - это, по сути, количество топлива в одном блоке.

agree  Alexander Demyanov: supply. Синонимы-то они синонимы, но не абсолютные, т.к. существуют более или менее принятая терминология. http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/technology/sts-newsref/s...

  -> Спосибо, Александр. Я согласна свами.
agree  David Knowles: Probably "supply". A "reserve" is the extra bit left usually in a "reserve tank" when the "supply" has run out.

  -> Thank you, David. I agree with you, "supply" would be more correct.
agree  GaryG: in this context I, too, vote for "supply"

запас топлива
propellant reserve


Explanation:
fuel - это горючее как компонент ракетного топлива (рабочего тела, извините за выражение:0, второй компонент - окислитель (речь о космических ракет, а они нас и интерсуют).

Что касается prop reserve, то именно так это называется на дисплеях российского сегмента МКС, переведенных на английский язык. Ссылок миллионы, не буду даже лазить, ладно, Дим?

fuel capacity


Explanation:
Если это просто емкость или вместимость.

В любом случае, мне кажется, что речь все же про объем топлива, а не \"хранилище, вместилище\", \"топливоснабжение\" или \"подачу топлива\".

neutral  David Knowles: Depends if it's the capacity or the amount left that's being discussed.
2 mins
  -> exactly! But the context shows this запас is included into the inital weight of the rocket, so it may be the entire volume of fuel in the booster
