Burning Rate Measurement of KNSu Propellant Obtained by Mechanical Press

Burning Rate Measurement of KNSu Propellant Obtained by Mechanical Press

The potassium nitrate (KNO3)/sucrose (C12H22O11) propellant, known as KNSu, is traditionally used in rocket studies by amateur groups. Performance tests of KNSu, whose composition is 65 wt% KNO3 and 35wt% C12H22O11, cold-manufactured by mechanical press, are presented in this paper. The study determ...
