Solid Propellant and its Effect on the Environment
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Significant advances have been made during the last decade in the field of Space propulsion; various types of solid and liquid propellants are used in the rocket motor as fuel. In this paper we will discuss about the solid rocket propellant rather than the liquid one. Solid propellants are mostly heterogeneous (composite) made up of various ingredients which improve the burn rate …

THE STUDY OF BURNING CHARACTERISTICS OF AP/HTPB/AL BASIC COMPONENTS OF A COMPOSITE PROPELLANT
Abstract: Starting the research on a solid propellant would be very much easier if the burning characteristics of a simple propellant is known. A simple propellant is a propellant made of three basic components namely oxidizer, fuel and binder without any additive substance to alter its characteristics. Unfortunately, a very limited number of references were published discussing the burning characteristics of simple propellant. This paper describes the burning characteristics of basic …
