Hybrid Rocket Propulsion Design Handbook gives propulsion engineers all the tools they need to develop hybrid propulsion systems or testbeds. It provides a theoretical background to hybrid rocket combustion - including details on hybrid design equations and methodologies, common hybrid propellants, system scaling laws, combustion instabilities, safety issues, and a summary of available regression rate data. This Handbook is accessible to readers from various backgrounds, with supporting theory from chemistry, thermodynamics, and rocket propulsion. It also recommends guidelines for standardized reporting of test data to resolve difficulties experienced by researchers working with results from different research institutes. Key Features, Covers general propulsion fundamentals, including the rocket equation, calculation of AV, and staging. Provides an overview of combustion thermodynamics. Summarizes hybrid regression for both classical and liquefying fuels, including empirical regression rate constants from published test information. Discusses hybrid rocket propellants and the associated safety concerns (where applicable). Outlines testing standards for hybrid researchers. Provides hybrid rocket propulsion system design equations. Describes feed line analysis and combustion instabilities. Outlines hardware design (including tanks, valves, tubing, etc.). Provides worked design examples.
