Modeling and CFD Simulation of Regression Rate in Hybrid Rocket Motors

open access: yesFire, 2023
As the research on hybrid rocket motors advances, more accurate tools are needed to estimate the performance of the system by determining its fundamental parameters. One of them is certainly the regression rate of the solid fuel.

Modified Regression Rate Formula of PMMA Combustion by a Single Plane Impinging Jet

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2017
A modified regression rate formula for the uppermost stage of CAMUI-type hybrid rocket motor is proposed in this study. Assuming a quasi-steady, one-dimensional, an energy balance against a control volume near the fuel surface is considered. Accordingly,
