Production of Nitrous Oxide in a Rocket Motor Exhaust.

Abstract

Predictions are made of concentrations of N2O produced within the exhaust of a double-base propellant rocket motor. Typical concentrations produced are predicted to be between 10 to the 12th power and 10 to the 13th power molecule/ml, some five orders of magnitude below those of CO2 and lower than the characteristics atmospheric level of about 1.3 x 10 to the 13th power molecule/ml.
