Burning Rate Measurement of KNSu Propellant Obtained by Mechanical Press
Journal of Aerospace Technology and Management, 2015 The potassium nitrate (KNO3)/sucrose (C12H22O11) propellant, known as KNSu, is traditionally used in rocket studies by amateur groups. Performance tests of KNSu, whose composition is 65 wt% KNO3 and 35wt% C12H22O11, cold-manufactured by mechanical press,
