Development of a 250 lbfv Kerosene - 90% Hydrogen Peroxide Thruster

Abstract

With the renewal of hydrogen peroxide usage in the last decade, many parties have become interested in usin g a non -toxic bi -propellant thruster for use in systems where weight and fast response (small impulse bit) are desired. GK has successfully developed a 250 lbfv RP -1/90% Hydrogen Peroxide thruster with very high thrust to weight and very short start times . The development test effort covers two years and test data is given from these tests.
