Review of solid-propellant ignition studies

16th Joint Propulsion Conference, 1980
AN extensive review of the literature on solid-propell ant ignition was made to establish the state-of-the-art. Various ignition theories, experimental measurements, and ignition criteria were critically examined. The review was summarized in easy-to-read tabular form to facilitate comparison between various studies. The effects of important parameters

Acoustic Resonance in Solid Propellant Rockets

Journal of Applied Physics, 1960
Attention is drawn to the fact that the solid propellant must, in general, be considered as one of the acoustic media in a rocket motor. The viscoelastic properties of the solid along with those of the burned gases determine the characteristic modes of the system corresponding to the particular boundary conditions imposed on these media by the metal ...

Virtual prototyping of solid propellant rockets

Computing in Science & Engineering, 2000
Researchers seek a detailed, whole-system simulation of solid propellant rockets under normal and abnormal operating conditions. A virtual prototyping tool for solid propellant rocket motors based on first principles models of rocket components and their dynamic interactions meets this goal. Given a design specification (geometry, materials, and so on),

Nano-composites for rocket solid propellants

Composites Science and Technology, 2005
Aim of this work is the study of different components (binder and aluminum powders) of solid propellants used for rocket propulsion to improve ballistic performance. New propellant formulations have been tested and characterised. Combustion residues were collected by a proprietary method and analyzed both from the morphological and chemical point of ...

Ignition of solid propellants

Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics, 1968
At present, the study of solid-propellant ignition is of particular interest owing to the adoption of hybrid motors [1–3]. The status of experimental and theoretical research in this field can be evaluated on the basis of the rather extensive survey of American papers in [2].

Solid Propellant Rockets

1968
Solid propellants are of two basic types: composites and double base propellants. The latter consist of a backbone of nitrocellulose (guncotton) onto which a quantity of nitroglycerine has been absorbed, resulting in a leathery propellant which can be cast or extruded into desired shapes.

Stabilization of a solid propellant rocket instability

Proceedings of the 40th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat. No.01CH37228), 2002
A globally stabilizing feedback boundary control law for an arbitrarily fine discretization of a one-dimensional nonlinear PDE model of unstable burning in solid propellant rockets is presented. The PDE has a destabilizing boundary condition imposed on one part of the boundary.

Viscoelastic Properties of Solid Propellants and Propellant Binders

1965
Abstract : Studies supplementary to the determination of the dynamic shear modulus are reported. The effects of specimen geometry and the magnitude of shear strain on the dynamic modulus of polyurethane propellant AEBA-10 were studied. A method was worked out to correct measurements to the same level of shear strain to allow a direct comparison under ...
