Abstract
Propellant performance of N 2O/HTPB were studied firstly. Vacuum specific impulse is bound up with a oxidizer-to-fuel ratio and expansion ratio. Numerical solutions of full Navier-Stokes equations with chemical reaction flow were obtained for a nozzle flow of the N 2O/HTPB hybrid rocket motor. Lower-Upper decomposition scheme and MUSCL-type and Van Leer approach were used. A chemical reaction model with 12 species and 16 elementary reactions was presented. The nozzle entrance condition was obtained by thermal calculation. The nozzle flow under optimum oxidizer-to-fuel ratio were calculated. which will be useful for the hybrid rocket motor design.
