Burning Enhancement by Erosion
● Occurs in port passages
● More likely when port
area is small relative to
throat area
● Turbulent mixing
increases heat transfer
● Propellant consumed
more rapidly
● Early burnout of the web6

Solid Propellant Handling and Storage
WHY?
● Avoid inconsistent burn rates as a result of grain damage
WHEN?
● During manufacture of propellant
● Transport
● Storage
● Operation

Factors that Induce Grain Deformations
● Thermal cycling and/or external heat through the case
● Cooling Rate after manufacturing causing compressive stress and strain
● Vibrations during transport/handling
● Undergoing high acceleration: including flight maneuvers
● Gravity slump: storage (Mostly for large motors)
● Imperfections during manufacture20

Propellant Grain Stress and Strain
● Undamaged propellant
○ High max stress and strain
● Damaged propellant
○ Reduced max stress and strain
● Results in grain fractures and cracks, grain
debonding from case line and insulation.

● Manufacturer to WSU
● Inspection and handling on campus
● Over 800 miles

Grain damage
● Most propellants are viscoelastic i.e non-linear
viscoelastic behavior
● Adhesive between individual solid particles and
binder gets broken down
○ Caused by cyclic load/thermal stress
○ Maximum stress/strain diminishes with
each cycle
● Varies between space motor to tactical missile
to ballistic missile

Reaction Control Systems
● 2 types of RCS
o Main exhaust RCS
o Monopropellant RCS
● Main exhaust RCS used during
mid-flight maneuvers
● Monopropellant RCS used for
orbital maneuvers for finer
maneuvering25

Summary● Knowing how burning rate relates and changes with mass flow, pressure,
and temperature is key to solid motor design.
● Grain configuration is necessary in large scale motors, but can be
neglected in our design case.
● For our case, handling is a big deal since we’ll be driving it down to
competition.
● RCS won’t be used in the competition rocket since our rocket will have
roughly a 2 second burn time.
