Experimental Demonstration of the Vacuum Specific Impulse of a Hybrid Rocket Engine

This paper presents the experimental results of a hybrid rocket engine fired both at ambient pressure and under low-pressure conditions. The hybrid engine includes a catalyst bed and a vortex injector, and it is fitted with ultrasound sensors to measure the instantaneous fuel regression rate. These...
