Responsible Engineers: Jorian, Alex, Tamara, Berkin, Xander

Assignments Week 2:

  • HEI CAD - Xander, Alex 


Assignments Week 1:

  • Alex - preliminary design HEI test stand 
  • Berkin - 
  • Jorian - 
  • Tamara - 

HEI Designs choices to still think about after CoDR

  • case calcs 
  • bolt calcs
  • angled nozzle?

HEI Goals/Changes:

  • HEI for booster and sustainer??
  • good seal
  • able to be integrated separately and slapped on at the end
  • liner no crack plz
  • improve the actual integration of the HEI
  • low-oxygen grain that will fit the new diameter (blue thunder works up to 3")
  • MAKE A TEST STAND PLEASE
  • HYDROSTATIC TEST WITH HEI

HEI Test Stand

  • hold in place
  • explode upwards
  • bench vise
  • steel/aluminum plate 

HEI designs:

  • 75mm liner and blue thunder propellant
  • 1.5s burn time for grain (ID?)

HEI seal ideas

  • old: phenolic at nozzle and aluminum interface
  • o-ring on the inner side of the aluminum tube (inner groove tool needed)

Separate integration

  • forward closure that you can remove
  • HEI in two parts 
    • nozzle included in lower part so the propellant is sealed

HEI integration

  • thicker liner

Hydrostatic test

  • HEI hydrostatic
  • main motor hydrostatic fire with modified HEI on top
    • machine everything out of aluminum
