Weight-optimized nitrous oxide tank designed to hold nitrous oxide at 1000psi. Designed for easy dissassembly with bolted bulkheads that were CNC machined to have a hemispherical wall. The vessel was hydrostatically tested at 1500psi with no leaks evident.
Sucessfully launched at IREC 2019 to an altitude of 15,500ft!




The bulkhead geometry was analyzed using ANSYS to ensure a saftey factor of 2 as mandated by IREC requirements.
