Husky Propulsion Lab

UConn Husky Propulsion Lab (UConn Liquid Propulsion) is a student-led collegiate team designing, developing, and testing liquid rocket engines. Official UConn AIAA sources document a 2024–25 regenerative-cooled combustion chamber, pintle injector, augmented spark igniter, propellant feed system, machining sessions, FEA/CFD, and a hotfire attempt; 2025–26 plans include custom ethanol/nitrous-oxide feed tanks and heat-sink-engine hotfire testing. No successful launch or hopper landing is claimed.
