A new trend is the so-called space tourism, which in the future may play an increasingly important role and have a significant impact on the development of rocket propulsion. In recent years, significant development of the private sector of the space industry has also been noticed - not only...
Hybrid rocket motors present a competitive edge among space applications, as they are flexible, safe, reliable, and low cost. The motor design and operation are contingent on the type of designated mission; therefore, it is useful to couple design and tr
To obtain a conceptual design for a hybrid rocket motor (HRM) to be used as the Ascent Propulsion System in the Apollo lunar module, the deterministic design optimization (DDO) method is applied to the HRM design. Based on the results of an uncertainty analysis of HRMs, an uncertainty-based...
