TEAM DHRUVISHAYA

Overview

Sanrachna focuses on building a strong foundation in rocketry through structured learning and collaboration. This phase is designed to equip members with essential technical knowledge, teamwork abilities, and personal growth alignment.

Key Focus Areas

• Mastering fundamental rocketry concepts and core technical skills
• Strengthening team building and collaborative problem-solving
• Introduction to advanced rocketry principles and applications
• Personal growth alignment with individual goals and club vision

1. Team Training & HPR Theory

The Theory: Teach new recruits compressible aerodynamics, Barrowman’s stability equations, and dual-deployment recovery physics.
The Process: Standardize flight simulation workflows in OpenRocket/RockSim and implement strict chemical handling safety protocols for propellants.

2. High-Class Motor Manufacturing

Propellant R&D: Scale up composite propellant chemistry; optimize core geometries (e.g., finocyl/star) for controlled chamber pressure (Pc).
Hardware: Machine 6061-T6 aluminum casings and design CFD-optimized convergent-divergent graphite nozzles with dual O-ring sealing.

3. Project Jericho (Experimental Rocket)

Airframe: Construct a lightweight, high-strength carbon fiber or fiberglass structure.
Systems: Integrate dual-redundant commercial altimeters, real-time GPS telemetry, and an automated black-powder ejection system for recovery.

4. Sponsorship & Collaboration

Barter & Materials: Pitch to regional machining and plasma-cutting centers to secure raw materials and manufacturing facilities.
Industry Value: Offer companies brand visibility on the airframe, alignment with student-led STEM initiatives, and early access to top automation/robotics talent.
