Produktbeschreibung
The Series provides an overview of the rapid development of new rocket propellant concepts, mainly in the area of environmentally-friendly rocket propellants, while at the same time it documents the history of what had been done with less sustainable, but more energetic materials in the past. The publication summarizes lessons learned, covering mainly liquid rocket propellants, and will help chemists in developing new energetic materials. Encyclopedia of Bipropellant Combinations is the fourth set of the series Encyclopedia of Rocket Propellants. Previously published sets include Encyclopedia of Oxidizers (5 volumes), Encyclopedia of Liquid Fuels (5 volumes), and Encyclopedia of Monopropellants (2 volumes). Encyclopedia of Bipropellant Combinations contains information on liquid rocket propellants used in bipropellant rocket engines. At one time it was planned to publish the subject of bipropellant combinations in two separate sets, one on hypergolic and one on non-hypergolic bipropellant combinations. Instead the two sub-topics are now combined conveniently in one set, published in three volumes. Encyclopedia of Bipropellant Combinations offers:
