ROCKET SOLID WIRED PROPELLANTS IN THE LIGHT OF PATENT LITERATURE
Journal Title: Problemy Techniki Uzbrojenia - Year 2016, Vol 137, Issue 1
Abstract
Results of investigations and studies of foreign patent literature on the manufacture of end-burning charges of solid rocket propellants with axially embedded wires are presented in the paper. The introduction of wires, possessing a high thermal conductivity level, into the stuff of rocket propellant makes the burning velocity increase by several times. For example the application of silver wires boosts the propellant burning velocity up to 5 times comparing to the same propellant without the wires. In the result of a research work and studies of patent publications a dozen of patent descriptions of inventions on the subject scope was selected, with the date of priority, issued in the 50-ties, 60-ties, 70-ties and 80-ties of the former century, applied in the USA, France, Great Britain and Japan. The subject of this paper has been very seldom presented for over 60 years. The data included in the patent descriptions seems to be very interesting, particularly for technologists dealing with manufacture of rocket solid propellant charges and for designers<br/><br/>
