The Performance of a Hybrid Rocket With Swirling GOx Injection

Abstract

With the developed HTPB curing process a 10-Kg thrust hybrid rocket was built and passed several static firing tests here in ASTRC. The motor was designed similar to the classical one with an aft-mixing chamber. The purpose of preset study is then to develop the enhancement mechanism for oxidizer and fuel vapor mixing and flame holding to assess the necessity of aft-mixing chamber that is usually employed in a classical hybrid rocket design.
