Hybrid Engine and General Information
ANADOLU-2 is equipped with the TONGA hybrid engine, using paraffin as solid fuel and N2O as the oxidizer.
The engine generates an instantaneous thrust of 2.34 kN/s and burns for 4.15 seconds. The rocket’s maximum speed is 0.63 Mach, and it is designed to reach an altitude of 9950 feet.
Mechanical Features
The rocket body is reinforced with carbon fiber, and the nose cone and fins are aerodynamically optimized. The nose cone follows the Haack Von Karman profile, with the first 65 mm made of aluminum.
The rocket features a CO2-based separation mechanism and is designed to carry a 10 lb payload to an altitude of 9950 feet.
A parachute made with ripstop fabric and a reinforced shock cord rated to 10 kN, compliant with ISO2307 standard are used for safe recovery.
Electronics and Avionics
The rocket has an 8-channel communication system, providing RF communication at 433 MHz with 500 mW output power.
The control system uses a 32-bit, 100 MHz MCU. Accurate altitude and position data is acquired using sensors such as GPS, altimeter, gyroscope, and accelerometer.
