MODELLING OF MONOPROPELLANT SPACE PROPULSION SYSTEM
Monopropellant thrusters still have a role to play in orbit insertion of small satellites whenever a sizable thrust is required. A new preliminary design analysis methodology is adopted. Two monopropellant catalyst bed reactor models are employed. The first model divides the flow into liquid, liquid-vapor, and vapor regimes. Each regime is divided into

A study on various methods of supplying propellant to an orbit insertion rocket engine [PDF]
Various types of pumps and pump drives were evaluated to determine the lightest weight system for supplying propellants to a planetary orbit insertion rocket engine. From these analyses four candidate propellant feed systems were identified. Systems Nos.
