Heterogeneous fuel for hybrid rocket [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Heterogeneous fuel compositions suitable for use in hybrid rocket engines and solid-fuel ramjet engines, The compositions include mixtures of a continuous phase, which forms a solid matrix, and a dispersed phase permanently distributed therein.

Enhancing energetic features of HTPB binder through nitro-functionalization and nitrocellulose doping

open access: yesFirePhysChem
This study presents a double modification strategy to enhance hydroxyl‑terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) properties as an energetic binder. HTPB was chemically nitrated to obtain nitro-HTPB (NHTPB), then blended with nitrocellulose (NC) at different ratios

Use of Taguchi design of experiments to optimize and increase robustness of preliminary designs [PDF]

open access: yes
The research performed this summer includes the completion of work begun last summer in support of the Air Launched Personnel Launch System parametric study, providing support on the development of the test matrices for the plume experiments in the Plume

Nitramine propellants [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Nitramine propellants without a pressure exponent shift in the burning rate curves are prepared by matching the burning rate of a selected nitramine or combination of nitramines within 10% of burning rate of a plasticized active binder so as to smooth ...

Solid-Fuel Ramjet Assisted Gun-Launched Projectiles [PDF]

open access: yes
The principles of construction and operation of a solid-fuel ramjet assisted gun- launched projectile are briefly explained. A concise global-survey of the projects on solid-fuel ramjet powered missiles is presented.

Decomposition in HTPB bonded HMX followed by heat generation rate and chemiluminescence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The decomposition in HTPB bonded HMX was characterized with two highly sensitive methods: heat flow microcalorimetry (HFMC) and Chemiluminescence (CL). The material is stabilized with a phenolic antioxidant. The heat generation (HFMC) rate was determined

Genetic Algorithm Optimization of a Cost Competitive Hybrid Rocket Booster [PDF]

open access: yes
Performance, reliability and cost have always been drivers in the rocket business. Hybrid rockets have been late entries into the launch business due to substantial early development work on liquid rockets and later on solid rockets.

Mars Ascent Vehicle Hybrid Propulsion Configuration [PDF]

open access: yes
As part of a Mars Sample Return (MSR) campaign, two Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV) configurations have been designed in parallel. Each ascent vehicle configuration has a different propulsion system which ultimately leads to two unique vehicle designs. As part

Application of aluminum-based micro-cell composite fuel in HTPB propellant

open access: yesJournal of Measurement Science and Instrumentation
To study the combustion performance of aluminum-based micro-cell composite fuel aluminum@ammonium perchlorate(Al@AP), in hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) solid propellant, the Al@AP was added to HTPB solid propellant instead of Al powder and part
