A functional and adaptable Aerospike Nozzle Demonstration. Consists of two units, the Nozzle and the Compressor. Can hook up a computer fan, or similar, to the compressor to push air through the nozzle. Fog/mist can then be used to visualize the flow through the nozzle. Can be used to teach students about flow dynamics on an Aerospike Nozzle as well as spark interest in Rocketry and Aerospace.   Watch it in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SN0FEfHgDzM&feature=youtu.be How it is used: https://www.appropedia.org/AerospikeEducationalAid   Useful Links: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerospike_engine  http://www.aerorocket.com/MOC/MOC.html https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/31fe/25e8f04db788b18fb42b2f033bfb4e0f8a8b.pdf   The design is parametrically defined.
