Solid amine-boranes as high performance hypergolic hybrid rocket fuels
<p>Hypergolic hybrid rockets have the potential of providing systems that are simple, reliable, have high performance, and allow for energy management. Such a propulsion system can be applied to fields that need a single tactical motor with flexible mission requirements of either high speed to …

Development of Lattice-Augmented Fuels for Hybrid Rocket Applications
Hybrid rocket propulsion systems, which utilize a solid fuel and liquid oxidizer, are among the safest and simplest rocket propulsion systems that can be developed. Despite these attractive qualities, the commercialization of the technology has been slow due to difficulties associated with scaling …

Analysis of a Hybrid Rocket Burn Using Generalized Compressible Flow
<p>The analysis of square ports in a hybrid rocket is simple when compared to other complicated port geometries such as a wagon wheel configuration. In the present work, fuel grains with several ports in a hybrid rocket engine are analyzed by transforming the ports into equivalent square ports. As …
