Effects of Solid‐Fueled Rocket Exhausts on the Stratospheric Ozone Layer
Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft für physikalische Chemie, 1992AbstractSpace transport systems often use solid‐fuel in boosters and this type of fuel is also very common for sounding rockets. One of the main components in the exhaust is hydrochloric acid. Photochemical model calculations have been performed to investigate local effects after such a rocket launch.

Calculating the spectral density of the radiant intensity of the plumes of solid-fuel rocket engines
, 2012This paper proposes a model for calculating the characteristics of the radiation of solid-fuel rocket engines (SFREs). The plume of an SFRE is regarded as a gas-dynamic system in which the characteristics of the rocket flight and the distribution ...

90% Hydrogen Peroxide/Polyethylene Solid Fuel Hybrid Rocket Engine [PDF]
The 90% hydrogen peroxide (HP), concentrated in lab-scale from Japanese domestic production of commercial grade HP, currently regulated below 60% for storing and handling safety have been applied to single perforation polyethylene solid fuel experimental hybrid rocket. Modified 3-way catalyst have been utilized for decomposing the HP.

Analysis of laser backscattering from solid fuel rocket plumes
AIAA Journal, 1991Analyses have been carried out for a ground-based experiment to measure laser backscattering from solid fuel rocket plumes. Mie scattering theory was used to compute the returned laser power as a function of range, wavelength, and scattering angle. The feasibility of retrieval of plume particle properties through various inversion methods was examined.

Effect of Radiation on the Rate of Burning of Solid Fuel Rocket Propellants
Journal of Applied Physics, 1948The temperature rise of powder grains in different rocket motors, resulting from the absorption of radiant energy, has been computed by the method of Avery. The calculated results show that more radiant energy is absorbed by the powder grains in large service rockets than in small experimental test motors.
