Book excerpt: Solid propellant is the most important energy source for rocket, missile and other weapons to launch, and is the key material to realize the firing range and damage effect of weapons. In order to meet the requirements of weapon application, the overall requirements for the energy performance, combustion performance, mechanical performance, storage performance, safety performance and process performance of solid propellant are put forward. Therefore, there are many challenges to fully meet the requirements of solid propellant and apply it to weapons. In recent years, with the development of material science, computational science and experimental technology, there are many reports about the composition, structure, performance research and prediction of solid propellants.This book reviews the research progress in solid propellant binder, energy performance prediction and thermodynamic calculation, combustion gas flow and combustion performance regulation, material storage performance research and safety performance simulation, and discusses the key development direction. The summary and prospect of this paper are expected to provide guidance, reference and inspiration for relevant researchers to carry out the research of solid propellant.This book is suitable for researchers, technicians and students who are engaged in solid propellant, weapons, chemistry and other work to read, for reference in specific research work. Due to the limited level of editors and short time, some problems are inevitable. We regret for some problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This newly reissued debut book in the Rutgers University Press Classics Imprint is the story of the search for a rocket propellant which could be trusted to take man into space. This search was a hazardous enterprise carried out by rival labs who worked against the known laws of nature, with no guarantee of success or safety. Acclaimed scientist and sci-fi author John Drury Clark writes with irreverent and eyewitness immediacy about the development of the explosive fuels strong enough to negate the relentless restraints of gravity. The resulting volume is as much a memoir as a work of history, sharing a behind-the-scenes view of an enterprise which eventually took men to the moon, missiles to the planets, and satellites to outer space. A classic work in the history of science, and described as “a good book on rocket stuff…that’s a really fun one” by SpaceX founder Elon Musk, readers will want to get their hands on this influential classic, available for the first time in decades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of the classic on the thermochemistry of combustion now features five new chapters and updated coverage of significant recent developments in the field. Addressing both experimental as well as theoretical aspects, the book covers the thermochemical and combustion characteristics of all important types of energetic materials, such as explosives, propellants, and the new class of pyrolants, as well as related phenomena. It presents the fundamental bases of the energetics of materials, deflagration and detonation, thermochemical process of decomposition and combustion, plus combustion wave structures. The book also goes on to discuss the combustion mechanisms of various types of energetic materials, propellants, and explosives, based on the heat transfer process in the combustion waves. The burning rate models are also presented as an aid to understanding the rate-controlling steps of combustion processes, thus demonstrating the relationships of burning rate versus pressure and initial temperature. As a major topic new to this edition, new propulsion methods such as duct rockets, ramjets, pulse motors and thrusters are described in detail, while appendices on flow field dynamics and shock wave propagation have been added.
