This lecture presents a general overview of the current methods used at SNIA BPD in designing solid rocket motor propellant grains. The internal ballistics aspect in grain design is emphasized. An overview of what are the general requirements (Thrust vs time curve, volumetric constraints, etc.), the available technologies (propellant types, manufacturing processes, etc.) and the method for selecting the most appropriate one is presented. Then, the methods used for grain design are summarized. The lecture deals, in particular, with the methods for propellant formulation choice, design of internal geometry, propellant characterization (performances, internal ballistics, etc.). An analysis of the predictability factors (various mechanisms that can affect the thrust curve, i.e.: erosive burning, hump factor, etc.), and how they can be taken into account for contingency planning is reported. The experimental tests commonly used for grain design validation are summarized.

The purpose of this book is to discuss, at the graduate level, the methods of performance prediction for chemical rocket propulsion. A pedagogical presentation of such methods has been unavailable thus far and this text, based upon lectures, fills this gap. The first part contains the energy-minimization to calculate the propellant-combustion composition and the subsequent computation of rocket performance. While incremental analysis is for high performance solid motors, equilibrium-pressure analysis is for low performance ones. Both are detailed in the book's second part for the prediction of ignition and tail-off transients, and equilibrium operation. Computer codes, adopting the incremental analysis along with erosive burning effect, are included. The material is encouraged to be used and presented at lectures. Senior undergraduate and graduate students in universities, as well as practicing engineers and scientists in rocket industries, form the readership.

This book, a translation of the French title Technologie des Propergols Solides, offers otherwise unavailable information on the subject of solid propellants and their use in rocket propulsion. The fundamentals of rocket propulsion are developed in chapter one and detailed descriptions of concepts are covered in the following chapters. Specific design methods and the theoretical physics underlying them are presented, and finally the industrial production of the propellant itself is explained. The material used in the book has been collected from different countries, as the development of this field has occurred separately due to the classified nature of the subject. Thus the reader not only has an overall picture of solid rocket propulsion technology but a comprehensive view of its different developmental permutations worldwide.

This report describes a FORTRAN IV digital computer program developed to calculate internal ballistic performance of solid propellant rocket motors with high burning rates, short burning durations, and high vehicle accelerations. Forked wagon wheel, conventional wagon wheel, standard star, slotted-cone, and circular port monolithic and segmented grain designs may be considered. Accurate description of an inert sliver in the cylindrical section is allowed for all but the forked wagon wheel grain design. The effects of anisotropic burning of the propellant may be considered. The storage of mass and momentum (capacitance effects) and vehicle acceleration are included in the internal gas dynamic equations. Ignition transients may be calculated. Tabular input of the motor grain description is available for special grain configurations that cannot be described by the program geometry constants. Motor performance parameters such as delivered and vacuum thrust and total impulse, fore-head and aft-head total pressure, nozzle discharge flow, fore-head and aft- head total pressure integrals, pitch and roll moments of inertia, center of gravity locations, burn surface area, and weight of propellant remaining are printed for each time Interval.
