Low loss injector for liquid propellant rocket engines [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
A low pressure loss injector element is disclosed for the main combustion chamber of a rocket engine which includes a lox post terminating in a cylindrical barrel. Received within the barrel is a lox plug which is threaded in the lox post and includes an

Characterization of Ultrafast Decomposition Dynamics in Nitrate Esters

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ignition of energetic materials initiates chemical reactions on atomic length scales within femtoseconds, making these reactions difficult to investigate experimentally. The technique of femtosecond time‐resolved mass spectrometry (FTRMS) can capture molecular rearrangement and bond‐breaking events in isolated molecules with sub‐50 femtosecond

Hydroxyl‐Terminated Polybutadiene‐Based Molding Powders as an Alternative Route for Manufacturing Pressed Polymer‐Bonded Explosives

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
This study presents an alternative method to manufacture polymer‐bonded explosives by partially curing an HTPB‐based molding powder prior to compaction. The study shows that the length of partial cure time before compaction directly influenced the geometric fidelity, homogeneity, compressive strength, density, and internal microstructure.

Synthesis and Characterization of an Azido Nitrofurazanyl Ether: An Energy‐Rich Heterocyclic Plasticizer With a Low Glass Transition Temperature

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report on the synthesis and characterization of 3‐(2‐(2‐azidoethoxy)ethoxy)‐4‐nitro‐1,2,5‐oxadiazole (NFPEG2N3), which is a liquid nitrofurazanyl ether that was designed to be an energy‐rich plasticizer for glycidyl azide polymer (GAP)‐ and nitrocellulose (NC)‐based formulations.

Development of NMP‐001, A Nitromethane‐Based Green Propellant

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper discusses the development of a model monopropellant that is aimed at exploring the applicability of nitromethane‐based propellants as an alternative to hydrazine. This approach addresses the challenges faced by HAN‐, ADN‐based propulsion by being more cost‐effective while providing similar performance figures.
