PROPELLANT OPTIMIZATION PROGRAM FOR COMPUTERS MATHEMATICAL PROCEDURES AND PROGRAMMING.

Abstract

Modifications to an existing computer program are described, which can determine the composition yielding maximum impulse for multi-compoent propellant mixtures subject to both equality and inequality constraints on the components. The program is coded for up to eight components; the capability extends to ten components. The final report contains the mathematical formulation of the problem and describes the procedures used for the optimization process with the modifications indicated. In addition, instructions for the use of the program and the program flow charts are included. (Author)
