Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A small hybrid rocket was developed as an educational material using conventional materials such as a carbonate plastic bottle, polyethylene, aluminum, steel, nichrome wire and oxygen gas. Collaboration science classes were performed using the hybrid rocket in science classes of second grade of a public junior high school in Kumagaya and fun science classes in Matsuyama. As a result, the cooperation between a junior high school and a university with the utilization of the hybrid rocket as an educational material was very effective not only to achieve the purpose of science lessons and fun science class, but also in order to evoke the interest of engineering and science.
