Propellants and Explosives (eBook, PDF)

Thermochemical Aspects of Combustion

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This third edition of the classic on the thermochemical aspects of the combustion of propellants and explosives is completely revised and updated and now includes a section on green propellants and offers an up-to-date view of the thermochemical aspects of combustion and corresponding applications. Clearly structured, the first half of the book presents an introduction to pyrodynamics, describing fundamental aspects of the combustion of energetic materials, while the second part highlights applications of energetic materials, such as propellants, explosives and pyrolants, with a focus on the phenomena occurring in rocket motors. Finally, an appendix gives a brief overview of the fundamentals of aerodynamics and heat transfer, which is a prerequisite for the study of pyrodynamics. A detailed reference for readers interested in rocketry or explosives technology.

Autorenporträt

Prof. Kubota works as scientific advisor at the National Institute of Industrial Science and Technology (Tsukuba, Japan). In 1973 he received his Doctorate from Princeton University, majoring in "Solid Propellant Combustion" and "Rocket Propulsion including Ducted Rocket Engine". During his career he was Director of the Third Research Center of the Technical Research and Development Institute (TRDI, Japan Defense Agency), which is responsible for aircraft and missile research. Afterwards, Prof. Kubota held a position as Senior Research Scientist in the Propellant Combustion Laboratory at Asahi Kasei Chemicals (Japan).
