Abstract:
Solid rocket motors are the simplest form of all rocket motors. The performance
reliability, ease of operation, more safe in transportation and storability made them more
attractive in propulsion industries. Theses mentioned unique properties of SRMs are due the solid composite propellant. The chemical composition of solid composite propellant can be tailored to meet the desired mission requirement i.e. mechanical and ballistic properties. These are few reasons due to which SRMs became famous for use in spite of having the less specific impulse over its counter part of liquid engines.
