Investigation of an additional oxidizer charge effect on selected operational characteristics of a solid-fuel rocket engine
The paper has been intended to discuss some issues closely related to the elimination of an extremely disadvantageous phenomenon, i.e. the occurrence of a negative oxygen balance in products of combustion emitted by a solid-fuel rocket engine while launching a missile from the aircraft. Findings of experimental examination of such engines furnished with an additional oxidizer charge have also been presented.
