Tables for the Calculation of Combustion Temperatures and Specific Impulses of Propellants

Abstract

A number of tables and a nomograph for calculating the combustion temperature and specific impulse of propellants are presented. The tables are extensions and modification of those already given by Pike. It is claimed that their use, in conjunction with the nomograph, considerably reduces the labour of calculating specific impulse.
