2. Hybrid-propellant rocket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid-propellant_rocket

   Hybrid rocket propulsion system conceptual overview. In its simplest form, a hybrid rocket consists of a pressure vessel (tank) containing the liquid oxidizer, the combustion chamber containing the solid propellant, and a mechanical device separating the two. When thrust is desired, a suitable ignition source is introduced in the combustion ...

3. Rocket propellant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_propellant

   Solid rockets use propellant in the solid phase, liquid fuel rockets use propellant in the liquid phase, gas fuel rockets use propellant in the gas phase, and hybrid rockets use a combination of solid and liquid or gaseous propellants. In the case of solid rocket motors, the fuel and oxidizer are combined when the motor is cast.

4. Nitrous oxide fuel blend - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrous_oxide_fuel_blend

   The propellant used in a rocket engine plays an important role in both engine design and in design of the launch vehicle and related ground equipment to service the vehicle. Weight, energy density, cost, toxicity, risk of explosions, and other problems make it important for engineers to design rockets with appropriate propellants. The major ...

6. High-test peroxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-test_peroxide

   HTP is used on ILR-33 AMBER [7] and Nucleus [8] suborbital rockets. HTP was planned for use in an attempt to break the land speed record with the Bloodhound SSC car, aiming to reach over 1,000 miles per hour (1,600 km/h). HTP would have been the oxidiser for the hybrid fuel rocket, reacting with the solid fuel hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene ...

7. Hybrid rocket fuel regression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_Rocket_Fuel_Regression

   Hybrid rocket fuel regression refers to the process by which the fuel grain of a hybrid-propellant rocket is converted from a solid to a gas that is combusted. It encompasses the regression rate, the distance that the fuel surface recedes over a given time, as well as the burn area, the surface area that is being eroded at a given moment.

9. Liquid rocket propellant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_rocket_propellant

   Konstantin Tsiolkovsky proposed the use of liquid propellants in 1903, in his article Exploration of Outer Space by Means of Rocket Devices. [3] [4] On March 16, 1926, Robert H. Goddard used liquid oxygen (LOX) and gasoline as propellants for his first partially successful liquid-propellant rocket launch. Both propellants are readily available ...
