Monofuel Rocket Motors

Abstract

Various motors have been made, and tested statically at rates of fuel flow up to 1 lb./sec., using chiefly nitroglycerine (desensitised) and myrol as fuels. Conclusions are drawn on the essentials for safe and efficient design, and theories relating to fuel combustion and motor design are put forward.
