Solid Propellant Motor Design: Comparison of Theoretical and Experimental Data

The objective of this paper is to compare the results of a solid rocket motor’s performance between theoretical calculations with empirical data collected from a static thrust bench in Propellant Laboratory, School of Aerospace Engineering, University Science of Malaysia. In this experiment, a simpl...
