This book was released on 1988 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper begins with a brief discussion of the basic ground rules and overall considerations in solid rocket motor design. This discussion includes ballistic design considerations, grain features related to ballistic design and their purposes, primary factors which determine stress and strain levels, and design approaches for avoiding structural weak points. The major section of the paper deals with solid rocket motor propellant grain structural integrity assurance, including materials characterization, structural analysis, and structural capability verification. The topics addressed include viscoelastic material behavior and the requisite thermomechanical characterization testing and analysis approaches; failure criteria and the appropriate testing approaches; experimental structural methods, including in-situ stress and strain measurement technology; and service life considerations.

This book was released on 1961 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four approaches for incorporating head and aftend effects on burning surfaces into the computer program, previously described were evaluated. A modified Quasi-Two-Dimensional approach, in which the initial head-end three dimensional burning surface is approximated by a number of planes, and the burning of each of these planes is then evaluated, was selected. The effects of aft-end burning are considered by adapting the present straight-through grain evaluation computer program at the aft-end to consider a variable propellant outside diameter. Photostress evaluations of engine grain designs having star and cylindrical perforated configuration with similar web ratios are described. Results obtained from applying a theoretical elastic analysis to the engine grains used in the Photostress study are reported. An experimental program to determine the effects of propellant defects on engine performance is described. Heat transfer studies were performed to duplicate numerically and by electrical analog the actual thermal conditioning history of an engine grain for which experimental thermal response data was obtained.

Download or read book Solid Rocket Propulsion Technology written by A. Davenas and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, a translation of the French title Technologie des Propergols Solides, offers otherwise unavailable information on the subject of solid propellants and their use in rocket propulsion. The fundamentals of rocket propulsion are developed in chapter one and detailed descriptions of concepts are covered in the following chapters. Specific design methods and the theoretical physics underlying them are presented, and finally the industrial production of the propellant itself is explained. The material used in the book has been collected from different countries, as the development of this field has occurred separately due to the classified nature of the subject. Thus the reader not only has an overall picture of solid rocket propulsion technology but a comprehensive view of its different developmental permutations worldwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive text on rocket propulsion—now revised to reflect advancements in the field For sixty years, Sutton's Rocket Propulsion Elements has been regarded as the single most authoritative sourcebook on rocket propulsion technology. As with the previous edition, coauthored with Oscar Biblarz, the Eighth Edition of Rocket Propulsion Elements offers a thorough introduction to basic principles of rocket propulsion for guided missiles, space flight, or satellite flight. It describes the physical mechanisms and designs for various types of rockets' and provides an understanding of how rocket propulsion is applied to flying vehicles. Updated and strengthened throughout, the Eighth Edition explores: The fundamentals of rocket propulsion, its essential technologies, and its key design rationale The various types of rocket propulsion systems, physical phenomena, and essential relationships The latest advances in the field such as changes in materials, systems design, propellants, applications, and manufacturing technologies, with a separate new chapter devoted to turbopumps Liquid propellant rocket engines and solid propellant rocket motors, the two most prevalent of the rocket propulsion systems, with in-depth consideration of advances in hybrid rockets and electrical space propulsion Comprehensive and coherently organized, this seminal text guides readers evenhandedly through the complex factors that shape rocket propulsion, with both theory and practical design considerations. Professional engineers in the aerospace and defense industries as well as students in mechanical and aerospace engineering will find this updated classic indispensable for its scope of coverage and utility.
