Aero NU Combustion Chamber

This chamber is part of a three-part rocket engine, the injector, chamber, and nozzle, created as a test stage before the club would move on to making a bigger rocket.

 

Our team was tasked with creating this chamber for use in testing the full engine. We used SolidWorks to create and dimension this properly.​ During testing, the chamber held up to pressure conditions and fired successfully when injected with kerosene through a nitrogen pressurized valve system.

​

The total hotfire lasted for around seven seconds and allowed the team to move on to the next phases of the rocket.
