Role of Injection in Hybrid Rockets Regression Rate Behavior
TL;DR: In this article, a series of firing tests was carried out to investigate the influence of the oxidizer injection on the solid fuel regression rate behavior in a hybrid rocket engine, where a conical subsonic nozzle as the injector of the gaseous oxidizer was selected to generate nonuniform conditions at the entrance of the fuel port.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of a Conical Axial Injector on Hybrid Rocket Performance
Carmine Carmicino,A. Russo Sorge +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the axial-symmetric polyethylene cylindrical grains through two different injector configurations: an axial conical subsonic nozzle and a radial injector.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acoustics, Vortex Shedding, and Low-Frequency Dynamics Interaction in an Unstable Hybrid Rocket
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the oxidizer-injection configurations on the motor stability is thoroughly examined, and the role of vortex shedding in both the pre- and post-combustion chamber is considered as the main driving mechanism of this latter behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trade-off between paraffin-based and aluminium-loaded HTPB fuels to improve performance of hybrid rocket fed with N2O
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of static tests on two hybrid rocket engines of different lab scales have been carried out by burning pure HTPB, aluminium-loaded HTPB or a paraffinic fuel with gaseous nitrous oxide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Investigation into the Effect of Solid-Fuel Additives on Hybrid Rocket Performance
Carmine Carmicino,A. Russo Sorge +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental performance evaluation, conducted with static firings of a laboratory-scaled hybrid rocket burning gaseous oxygen and several fuel combinations, aimed at raising the fuel regression rate is addressed.
