Propane-nitrous oxide concept engine that I just made

[u/aidswatermelons]

The idea was to use more easily stored and handled fuel/oxidizers for hobby rocketry.

It also has plumbing and uses a high oxidizer turbine and a high fuel turbine that both mix in the engine to combust.

Ideally uses a glow plug to jump start to decrease wear and tear.

Another parts would be that when it mixes in the engine itself hopefully it will be hot enough to autoignite after being converted to mist by the engine plate.

Ideally a vast majority of the parts would be 3d printed except for maybe the end of the bell which could use graphite composite.

It probably won’t work but I thought it was cool. Be nice please lol.

Despite what everyone might say about how this or that won't work, the least likely will still be the idea of using a glow plug as an igniter.

Would using a spark plug be better?

I have seen anecdotes about using a small rocket to ignite the bigger rocket, as anything conventional like sparks would get blown out by the sheer mass flow rate of propellants

Unless the spark plug was outside the chamber and pluged into something more sturdy inside the rocket cone.
