Theoretical analysis of hydrides in solid and hybrid rocket propulsion
International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2012Chemical rocket propulsion can benefit by using hydrides that are able to store high volumes of hydrogen at ambient conditions that can be released during combustion. This paper offers a theoretical investigation concerning the use of hydrides as additives in hybrid fuels and solid propellants.

On use of hybrid rocket propulsion for suborbital vehicles
Acta Astronautica, 2018Abstract While the majority of operating suborbital rockets use solid rocket propulsion, recent advancements in the field of hybrid rocket motors lead to renewed interest in their use in sounding rockets. This paper presents results of optimisation of sounding rockets using hybrid propulsion.

Proceedings. Frontiers in Education. 36th Annual Conference, 2006
This paper describes a unique design and laboratory experience that was incorporated into an introductory rocket propulsion course. Specifically, each student team designed, built and tested a 7 lbf thrust hybrid rocket motor. The thrust chambers were fabricated from aluminum and the nozzles were fabricated from graphite.

Paraffin-based Fuels and Energetic Additives for Hybrid Rocket Propulsion
51st AIAA/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference, 2015 Energetic additives for hybrid rocket propulsion, investigated at the Space Propulsion Laboratory (SPLab) of Politecnico di Milano, are discussed in this paper in order to estimate the potential increase of hybrid rocket performance. Traditional HTPB-based and paraffin-based fuels are considered, with special emphasis to the second ones.

Hybrid Rocket/Airbreathing Propulsion for Ballistic Space Transportation
Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets, 1980The potential payload gains due to airbreathing propulsion are evaluated for a one-and-one-half stage reusable vertical-takeoff ballistic space transporter with a gross mass of 155 Mg. The system consists of a returnable ring of turborocket/ramjet engines added as a half-stage to the structure of a 130 Mg, single-stage, vertical-takeoff-vertical ...

Hybrid Rocket Propulsion Performance Prediction
41st AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference & Exhibit, 2005The 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

Recent developments and current status of hybrid rocket propulsion
1st Annual Meeting, 1964Efficient, high-energy hybrid motors can be designed for specific applications. High impulse and variable thrust capabilities have been proved. New propellant systems and improved motor designs have led to impulse efficiencies > 93%, nearly total fuel utilization, and burning rates approximating those of conventional solid propellants.
