Regression rate study in a small Hybrid Rocket Engine using N 2 O / paraffin propellant
1 Abstract: In the frame of the FAST20XX project under the supervision of ESA, two hybrid rocket engines are developed at Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) in collaboration with the Royal Military Academy of Belgium to assess the performance of paraffin/N2O propellants. The goal behind the study is to measure the regression rate and optimize the size of ALPHA, which is a sub-orbital vehicle d...
متن کاملCorrelation of Hybrid Rocket Propellant Regression Measurements with Enthalpy-Balance Model Predictions
An enthalpy-balance fuel-grain regression model is presented. The regression model, based on the longitudinally averaged fuel recession rates, is shown to accurately predict the chamber pressure, thrust and specific impulse performance of small and medium scale hybrid rocket motors. The key to the model predictions is the longitudinal enthalpy balance between the fuel grain heat of ablation and...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Power Efficient, Restartable, "Green" Propellant Thruster for Small Spacecraft and Satellites
This paper details the development of an innovative "green" hybrid rocket propulsion system, applicable to small spacecraft. When fully developed this propulsion technology has the potential to act as a "drop in" replacement for propulsion system utilizing hazardous propellants such as hydrazine. Fuel grains are manufactured using a form of additive manufacturing known as Fused Deposition Model...
متن کاملHigh-pressure Burning Rate Studies of Solid Rocket Propellants
Increased rocket motor performance is a major driver in the development of solid rocket propellant formulations for chemical propulsion systems. The use of increased operating pressure is an option to improve performance potentially without the cost of reformulation. A technique has been developed to obtain burning rate data across a range of pressures from ambient to 345 MPa. The technique com...
متن کاملHybrid Rocket Technology: An Overview
Introduction In hybrid rocket motors, one of the two propellants (oxidizer or fuel) is in liquid phase and the other is in solid phase. The combination of a solid fuel and a liquid oxidizer is the most common one, Fig. 1. 1 Even though the idea of hybrid rocket motor was conceived as early as 1937, it was only after 1960s they were built successfully with good combustion efficiency. A discussio...
