Hello everyone!
I am an undergrad at Rowan University hoping to be completing a NASA fellowship starting in June. I am president of our student chapter of AIAA and the project-lead for our Intercollegiate Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC) team.
The beauty of the IREC competition is that, as long as you can prove its safe, you essentially can launch. As i scale up my design to get into the SRAD (for homemmade engines) 30k category of the competition, questions are coming up that my university faculty and local NAR mentors can no longer answer.
I was hoping that the community here may be able to direct me to literature regarding propellant design and thrust characterization, nozzle and casing design, and thermodynamics of rocket flight at higher than mach 1 (fastest ive flown).
As I've said, my uni faculty and NAR advisors are no longer to answer some of these big questions just looking for some guidance!
Cheers
