Conceptual design and performance simulation of a space hybrid motor

Conceptual design and performance simulation of a space hybrid motor Purpose – This study aims to present a method for conceptual design and simulation of hybrid propellant motors. Design/Methodology/Approach – The design methodology is based on previous studies and thermo-physical governor relations, and also a computational code that was derived to simulate the performance of designed system. Findings – Conceptual design algorithm for space hybrid propellant systems and method of performance simulation are findings of this study. Practical implications – Results of this study are applicable for design process of space systems with hybrid propulsion. Also, simulation results can help the users to improve the performance weaknesses. Originality/value – This study shows the implementation of present algorithm for a specified space mission and also study on variation of performance parameters. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology: An International Journal Emerald Publishing
