Research abstract

THIS PROPOSAL WAS PREPARED IN RESPONSE TO SBIR 87.1 SOLICITATION A87-81 FOR THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A STRAND BURNER FOR SPECTRO-SCOPIC AND PHOTOCHEMICAL PROBING OF SOLID-PROPELLANT FLAMES. THE TEST RIG WILL BE A WINDOWED HIGH-RESSURE VESSEL FOR FEEDING A PROPELLANT STRAND BURNING AT A FIXED POSITION. THE MAXIMUM CHAMBER PRESSURE IS 2000 PSI. THE TEST SECTION IS EQUIPPED WITH FOUR QUARTZ WINDOWS FOR FLOW VISUALIZATION AND NONINTRUSIVE COMBUSTION DIAGNOSITC MEASUREMENTS. THE END-CAP PIECE WILL HAVE A WINDOW PORT FOR RADIATIVE IGNITION OF PROPELLANTS BY INFRAREDOR ULTRAVIOLET-ENERGY SOURCE. THE END PRODUCT OF THIS PROJECT IS THE DELIVERY OF THE STRAND-BURNER TEST RIG DESCRIBED IN THIS PROPOSAL.
