STUDY TO FIND SIMULANTS FOR FUELS FOR USE IN STRUCTURES FATIGUE TESTING

Abstract

Several physical properties of simulants for five liquid propellants and one solid propellant were compared with those of the particular propellant over a wide temperature range. The materials selected as simulants duplicate to a great extent the properties of the 'live' ingredients, while being neither a toxicity nor a fire hazard.
