Another major success of Indian Space Research Organisation, lightweight nozzle prepared for rocket engines

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is constantly creating new horizons. ISRO has now accomplished yet another success. He has created lightweight rocket engine nozzles. The space agency claimed that the creation of lightweight carbon-carbon (Si-Si) rocket engine nozzles, which boost payload capacity, represents a technological advance in rocket engine technology.

ISRO said the rocket, developed by the space agency's Vikram Sarabhai Space Center (VSSC), claims to enhance critical parameters of the engine. This will increase the payload capacity of launch vehicles. It was further said that Thiruvananthapuram-based VSSC developed the nozzle divergent by taking advantage of advanced materials such as carbon-carbon (Si-Si) composites.

By using processes such as carbonization and high-temperature treatment of green composites, it has designed a nozzle with low density, high specific strength and excellent stiffness, which can maintain mechanical properties even at elevated temperatures.
