Hybrid Rocket Propulsion Performance Prediction

41st AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference & Exhibit, 2005
The work performed in this effort used previously measured experimental subscale hybrid propellant data to develop a ground test motor in the 1000 pound-force range. This ground test motor was test fired and the test data was used to finalize a motor fuel grain geometry configuration and an oxidizer injector geometry. The ground tests were then used to

Advanced hybrid rocket motor experiments

Acta Astronautica, 1987
Abstract Results of experiments performed with an advanced, automated measuring system and dealing with combusion of polymethylmethacrylate and polyethylene with oxygen and different mixtures of oxygen and nitrogen are reported. Factors affecting the regression rate of the fuel are the mass flux, the geometry, the pressure level and the presence of ...

Peregrine Hybrid Rocket Motor Development

50th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference, 2014
To further develop and demonstrate the applicability of liquefying-fuel hybrid rocket technology to low-cost launch applications, a small team of engineers is developing a medium-scale liquefying-fuel hybrid sounding rocket using storable propellants (paraffin wax and N2O) that will propel a 5 kg payload to the edge of space.

Sounding Rocket "HEROS" - A Low-Cost Hybrid Rocket Technology Demonstrator

53rd AIAA/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference, 2017
The inherent safety of hybrid rocket propulsion offers some unique advantages com- pared to solid and liquid propellant rocket engines. This makes it especially attractive for space tourism, Micro-launcher and hands-on experiments in the education of students. On November 8th, 2016 at 10:30 a.m.

Internal ballistic considerations in hybrid rocket design

2nd Propulsion Joint Specialist Conference, 1966
This paper outlines methods for calculating the ballistic behavior of hybrid propellant combinations. The effects of scaling, pressure level, and internal geometric configuration are examined, utilizing a machine analysis that is based upon heat-transfer-limited theory.

Performance Additives for Hybrid Rockets

2016
Addition of performance-improving materials in the solid hydrocarbon fuels of hybrid rockets has been studied extensively both in academia and also in the industry. The primary motivation has been to improve the specific impulse, density impulse, and regression rate performance of the propulsion system.

Hybrid Rocket Theory and Design

1968
A hybrid rocket is so named because one of the propellant components is liquid and the other solid. Normally the oxidizer is liquid and the fuel is solid. In a typical design (Fig. 7-1), the oxidizer is sprayed in at the head end of a solid cylindrical fuel grain. It is apparent that once the liquid oxidizer is injected, the combustion process proceeds
