Static Rocket Test
Static rocket testing plays a crucial role in determining the equilibrium chamber pressure, chamber temperature, and motor thrust. This, in turn, enables us to align experimental results with theoretical models accurately. The tests were conducted using KNO3 and Sugar in a weight proportion of 65% and 35%, respectively. During testing, we noticed unburned fuel within the motor and deposits of K2CO3 within the motor casing. A force of 1 N was measured using the thrust stand at an equilibrium pressure of 5 Bar, without employing a CD Nozzle.
