Propulsion Engineering Final Project

Hybrid Toroidal Aerospike Rocket Motor

For my final project in propulsion engineering I set about designing and testing a hybrid rocket motor that would utilize a toroidal aerospike nozzle. I was able to successfully design the rocket motor, however, significant manufacturing issues were encountered late in the project leading to the original design needing to be abandoned. A MK2 version is in the works and is slated to be tested later in Summer 2020. Click on the links below to view the final presentation and read the final report.
