Parametric study of water rocket for optimum flight

Abstract

The water rocket is produce by a simple principle of two elements which are the force and pressure, water and air is compressed by a certain pressure, then the high pressure is produce. The law that involved are the Newton First Law, Newton Second Law, Newton Third Law and Bernoulli Principe. The study that involve in this project is to study aerodynamic, designing the water rocket body, analysis of the result, study launching angle, study the density of fluid, study the nose of water rocket, and water rocket body length. For this water rocket project, wireless launcher system can is added, it becomes automated system control for example by using the servo motor to trigger the compressor and launch the rocket by a remote control. This project also use the remote control of the radio frequency to start the air compressor and launch the water rocket.
