  1. 1. Design and Implementation of a Rocket Launcher Hybrid Navigation

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Omar Ugolini; [2023]
    Keywords : launch vehicle navigation; delayed Kalman filter; strapdown; navigering av bärraketer; fördröjt Kalman-filter; strapdown;

    Abstract : Rocket Factory Augsburg (RFA) a German New Space Startup is developing a three-stage rocket launcher aiming at LEO/SSO orbits. A fundamental responsibility of the GNC team is the development of the rocket navigation algorithm to estimate the attitude, position, and velocity allowing the guidance and control loops to autonomously steer the rocket.

  2. 2. Simulation of Combustion in a Hybrid Rocket Engine

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Oscar Andersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Thesis; Hybrid Rocket Engine; CFD; computational fluid dynamics; combustion;

    Abstract : A numerical investigation on the combustion mechanics of a hybrid rocket engine is performed through unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulation. The hybrid rocket engine model is based on an experimental laboratory scale engine design operating on GOX and HDPE as a propellant. READ MORE

  3. 3. Design of a modular small-scale PMMA/Air hybrid rocket research engine

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Gustaf von Platen; [2023]
    Keywords : hybrid rocket engine; PMMA combustion; rocket engine design; combustion diagnostics; rocket engine; regression rate; preliminary design definition; hybrid rocket engine simulation; gaseous oxidizer; transparent rocket engine;

    Abstract : Rocket propulsion using the hybrid-propellant scheme is a technology that offers much promise in applications where high-performance liquid rocket engines are deemed too complex and solid rocket motors are considered to lack performance or safety. However, despite extensive research, there is still a lack of knowledge in the theoretical aspects of hybrid rocketry, especially in the area of fuel-oxidizer mixing and fuel regression rate.

  4. 4. Parametric study on hybrid rocket propulsion system performance measured by the system specific impulse

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Adam Bussmann; [2022]
    Keywords : Hybrid; Hybrid propulsion; Hybrid propulsion system; System specific impulse;

    Abstract : Hybrid rocket motors have become of great international interest during the last couple of years. A hybrid rocket motor is propelled by the use of a solid fuel and a liquid oxidizer. The fundamental principle of the hybrid propelled system is that the liquid oxidizer is injected into a combustion chamber to enable the combustion of the solid fuel. READ MORE

  5. 5. Formulation and Assessment of Hexamethylene-tetramine Filled Solid Fuel Grains

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Mårten Schollin; [2021]
    Keywords : Hybrid rocket; solid fuel grain; hexamine; pot-life; tensile properties; Hybridraket; fast raketbränsle; hexamin; härdningstid; dragegenskaper;

    Abstract : Hybridraketer har inte sett så mycket användning som dess motsvarigheter som använder flytande eller fasta drivmedel. De främsta orsakerna kan förklaras med att hybridraketer historiskt sett haft lägre regressionshastighet och bränsletäthet. Inverkan av nackdelarna har dock minskat tack vare fortsatt forskning rörande hybridraketer. READ MORE
