Liquid Propulsion at Cornell
Cornell's first student team focused on experimental propulsion research & design, with a focus on liquid rocket propulsion, jet propulsion, and dynamic control.
Our Subteams
Mechanical: Systems-engineering-driven design, build, and test. Work spans main/igniter/gas-generator injectors, combustion chambers/nozzles, cooling analysis with validation via cold-flows and hot-fires, turbopump design (pumps, turbines, bearings, seals, housings) and material trades, subsystem testing, full-stack CAD/simulation, and rigorous technical documentation.Electrical: Flight computers (barometers, accelerometers, GPS and RF capability), Active Control and feedback loops, DAQ: integrate feed/read/analyze pipelines for test-stand and vehicle, ensure reliable data capture, and support verification.Business: Website and social, event planning, finances, and logistics.
