To characterize our BPM100 injector, we needed to go bigger than any other homemade project has gone before. The Spica rocket engine will burn through 50 liters of propellants each second. To simulate that on Read more…
Finding The Mass Flow of Rocket Fuel Injectors
After increasing the hole diameter of our swirl injectors, we need to confirm how that changes their mass flow. Jeppe guides you through how to do just that.
Rocket Heart Surgery – Swirlers Need A Bit More Fuel to FLY
A quick update on how we modify our swirl injectors to test how larger propellant holes influence their output.
