Here's the very basics of how a rocket works: A rocket works by burning a fuel to create exhaust, it's the release of this exhaust that generates the thrust that pushes the rocket skyward. Think of a balloon, if you inflate a balloon and don't tie it closed, when you let go the balloon will fly around the room as the air escapes.

Homemade Rocket With Rocket Fuel and Engine: I really like and enjoy estes rocket, and I decided to make one myself. I also made the fuel and the engine. All is made from the materials you can easily obtain or even have at your house right now. They can go up to 300 meters (1,000 …

2013年9月10日 · In this project, you’ll combine two commonly available substances — granulated sugar and potassium nitrate — to make a powerful engine that can propel a small sugar rocket to impressive heights.

2018年2月14日 · I'll make engines with these two processed rocket fuels, commercial-airfloat and homemade spruce/pine charcoal, ball milled, dampened/screened/dried, and see how the rocket flies with them. This is the final rocket motor configuration I have in mind.

2013年10月2日 · His latest project is a 250lbf regeneratively cooled engine. It uses kerosene as the fuel, and liquid oxygen as the oxidizer. The neat thing is he utilizes the temperature change of the liquid...

The purpose of this publication is to provide the serious amateur builder with design information, fabrication procedures, test equipment requirements, and safe operating procedures for small liquid-fuel rocket engines. A liquid rocket engine employs liquid propellants which are fed under pressure from tanks in to a combustion chamber.

2024年10月27日 · To make rocket fuel, start by mixing potassium nitrate and sugar in a container. Then, transfer the mixture to a saucepan and add some Karo syrup and water. Next, heat the ingredients over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring it constantly as it thickens.

2020年12月23日 · We go through a step by step process of how to build our rocket engines. At the end, we test the different mixtures. Our next video (in a few days) will show us lighting the rockets built in...

2010年9月28日 · A G-motor containing just two ounces of low-hazard propellant (APCP) can lift itself and a well-designed rocket a mile into the air, nearly reaching mach 1 on the way up…..and close to that ...

2024年5月2日 · We worked relentlessly to create a flight-worthy engine system and went from nothing to having ten flight-worthy engines tested and installed on a rocket in under four years. I’m excited to talk through the path we took to get there. You don’t get to a simple, robust, resilient engine by accident.
