Abstract:
Nitrous-oxide-based oxidizer-fuel integrated propellant has been widely concerned by many aerospace scientists due to its excellent properties such as non-toxic, high specific impulse and wide temperature range.The United States, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Germany and China have carried out a lot of successful work on the propellant and its propulsion system.In this paper, the research progress in the formula system, engine design, combustion process and anti-tempering characteristics of nitrous-oxide-based oxidizer-fuel integrated propellant at home and abroad since 2016 is reviewed.Combined with the actual situation in China, some suggestions for the further development of nitrous-oxide-based oxidizer-fuel integrated propellant and propulsion system are put forward.
