FEASIBILITY STUDY OF PARAFFIN-BASED FUELS FOR HYBRID ROCKET ENGINE APPLICATIONS
International Journal of Energetic Materials and Chemical Propulsion, 2014 This paper describes a combined analysis performed in pure waxes and paraffin-based mixtures that can be used as solid fuels in hybrid rocket engines. Density easurements of pure waxes were performed using a dilatometer. An experimental facility was set up and, after preliminary measurements and calibration, a repeatable procedure was implemented.
