This book was released on 1961 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods are described for calculating specific impulses of propellant mixtures. The capacity of the computer (Burroughs 220) and the availability of thermodynamic data place practical restrictions on what systems can be calculated. The calculations center around the method of White, Johnson, and Dantzig for determining the equilibrium compositions of complex mixtures. By developing and applying matrix equations which describe both the thermodynamic data and the physical equations, the programming effort was reduced. Required input data to the program are the composition of the reaction mixture, the chamber and exit pressures, and a rough estimate of the chamber temperature. All other pertinent data are retrieved from magnetic tape by the computer program. A large number of problems may be solved without manual intervention. In addition to the specific impulse, the program calculates the characteristic velocity, the chamber and exit temperatures, compositions, enthalpies and entropies. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thermodynamics of Certain Refractory Compounds, Volume I: Discussion of Theoretical Studies provides information pertinent to thermodynamics as a significant theoretical tool for predicting the chemical and physical behavior of materials under diverse environmental conditions. This book presents a summary of the methods used to analyze thermodynamic data. Organized into six chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the thermodynamic properties that have been obtained for a selected group of refractory compounds in the range from 0° to 6000°K. This text then examines the class of compounds, including the borides, oxides, carbides, and nitrides of some elements in groups IIA, IIIB, IVB, VB, VIB, VIIB, and VIII as well as some elements from the rare-earth and actinide series. Other chapters consider the need for standardization in methods of obtaining and presenting thermodynamic data. The final chapter deals with the recommendations for the advancement of work. This book is a valuable resource for scientists and engineers.

Download or read book A Study of Propellant Performance Analysis Techniques written by Ernest Anthony Alcivar and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A general propellant performance program, utilizing the free-energy minimization method for equilibrium composition calculations, was developed for the IBM 1620 digital computer. The validity of the theoretical approach was verified by measuring the experimental performance of a polyurethane-ammonium perchlorate solid propellant in a miniature rocket motor. The average standard specific impulse was found to be 13.2 percent lower than the corresponding theoretical value for frozen flow conditions. The difference is well within the range of deviation between theory and experiment reported in the literature, and can be largely accounted for by combustion and nozzle inefficiencies.
Download or read book Fundamentals of Electric Propulsion written by Dan M. Goebel and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-12-22 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout most of the twentieth century, electric propulsion was considered the technology of the future. Now, the future has arrived. This important new book explains the fundamentals of electric propulsion for spacecraft and describes in detail the physics and characteristics of the two major electric thrusters in use today, ion and Hall thrusters. The authors provide an introduction to plasma physics in order to allow readers to understand the models and derivations used in determining electric thruster performance. They then go on to present detailed explanations of: Thruster principles Ion thruster plasma generators and accelerator grids Hollow cathodes Hall thrusters Ion and Hall thruster plumes Flight ion and Hall thrusters Based largely on research and development performed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and complemented with scores of tables, figures, homework problems, and references, Fundamentals of Electric Propulsion: Ion and Hall Thrusters is an indispensable textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students who are preparing to enter the aerospace industry. It also serves as an equally valuable resource for professional engineers already at work in the field.

Download or read book Propulsion Re Entry Physics written by Michał Lunc and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Propulsion Re-Entry Physics deals with the physics of propulsion re-entry and covers topics ranging from inductive magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) propulsion systems to launch systems and orbiting maneuvering systems. Problems of re-entry aerodynamics are considered, along with interaction problems in hypersonic fluid dynamics. Comprised of 31 chapters, this volume begins with a detailed account of the quasi-steady adiabatic vaporization and subsequent exothermic decomposition of a pure monopropellant spherical droplet in the absence of free and forced convection. The discussion then turns to results of calculations on MPD machines working in the intermittent and in the continuous mode; inductive plasma accelerators with electromagnetic standing waves; and spherical rocket motors for space and upper stage propulsion. Subsequent chapters focus on pulsed plasma satellite control systems; drag and stability of various Mars entry configurations; hypersonic laminar boundary layers around slender bodies; and effects of an entry probe gas envelope on experiments concerning planetary atmospheres. This book will appeal to students, practitioners, and research workers interested in propulsion re-entry and the accompanying physics.

Book excerpt: Specific impulse calculations for a wide range of input concentrations are reported for atomic additives to solid hydrogen, combusted with liquid oxygen. These specific impulse values are presented in the form of 3D contour plots that reveal information about an entire region of interest. The output product species are also presented in this manner. These plots can be used to determine the optimum performance of any particular additive concentration and provide insight into how the performance level changes with concentration of the additive. temperature in the chamber, and exhaust product species ...
