Abstract:Thrust modulation (termination or reduction) is one of the most sophisticated topics in rocket motors. Thrust termination is employed when combustion must be terminated to ensure proper stage separation, to avoid motor explosion, to attain certain range, or for research purposes. While liquid and hybrid propellant rocket motors have the ability to extinguish thrust, thrust termination in solid propellant rocket motors (SPRMs) need the use of specialized technology. In-flight thrust termination of (SPRMs) can b… Show more
