High Propulsion Mass Fraction Hybrid Propellant System

View page
US Patent:
7404288, Jul 29, 2008
Filed:
Oct 28, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/261433
Inventors:
Marti Sarigul-Klijn - Poway CA, US
Nesrin Sarigul-Klijn - Poway CA, US
Jim Benson - Poway CA, US
Grant Williams - Poway CA, US
Frank Macklin - Poway CA, US
Assignee:
SpaceDev, Inc. - Poway CA
International Classification:
F02K 9/28
US Classification:
60251, 602001
Abstract:
Disclosed is a propulsion system having a structural configuration that provides easy and convenient access to the interior regions of a liquid fuel tank and a hybrid rocket motor case. The system operates with a high oxidizer-to-fuel ratio and a high bulk density propellant combination that has a near uniform specific impulse over a large oxidizer-to-fuel ratio range. The system has an increased propellant mass fraction and reduced propellant residuals. This improves the performance of the hybrid propulsion system.

US Patent:
7503165, Mar 17, 2009
Filed:
Feb 1, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/049344
Inventors:
Frank MacKlin - Poway CA, US
Chris Grainger - Poway CA, US
Assignee:
SpaceDev, Inc. - Poway CA
International Classification:
F02K 9/28
US Classification:
60251, 602001
Abstract:
Disclosed is a propulsion system having a structural configuration that provides easy and convenient access to the interior regions of a liquid fuel tank and a hybrid rocket motor case. In one embodiment, the propulsion system comprises: a hybrid rocket motor case and a fuel tank coupled to the hybrid motor case. The motor case is configured to hold solid rocket fuel and the fuel tank defines an internal volume configured to hold a fluid oxidizer. A bulkhead is interposed between the motor case and the fuel tank, wherein at least one access passageway extends through the bulkhead. The access passageway provides exterior access to the interior volume of the motor case or the internal volume of the storage tank while the hybrid rocket motor is coupled to the fuel tank.

Appl. No.:
12/404977
Inventors:
Frank Macklin - Poway CA, US

Hybrid Rocket Motor With Annular, Concentric Solid Fuel Elements

View page
US Patent:
8539753, Sep 24, 2013
Filed:
Jun 18, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/764677
Inventors:
Frank Macklin - Poway CA, US
Assignee:
SpaceDev, Inc. - Poway CA
International Classification:
F02K 9/28
US Classification:
60253, 60255, 60257
Abstract:
A hybrid rocket motor includes a supply of oxidizer, a first solid fuel element positioned around the supply of oxidizer, a second solid fuel element positioned concentrically around the first solid fuel element, and a combustion port positioned between the first and second solid fuel elements. The oxidizer interacts with the first and second solid fuel elements within the combustion port to produce a combustion product. A nozzle is in communication with the combustion port for combustion discharge of the combustion product.

US Patent:
20050229583, Oct 20, 2005
Filed:
Apr 15, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/825924
Inventors:
Chris Grainger - Poway CA, US
Frank MacKlin - Poway CA, US
International Classification:
F02K001/00
US Classification:
060204000, 060229000
Abstract:
Disclosed is a propulsion system for a spacecraft. The propulsion system includes a supply of oxidizer and at least one nozzle. A conduit fluidly couples the supply of oxidizer and the nozzle. The conduit provides a pathway for oxidizer to flow in a downstream direction from the supply of oxidizer toward and into the nozzle. A pressure regulator is coupled to the conduit and is interposed between the supply of oxidizer and the nozzle, wherein the pressure regulator regulates the pressure of oxidizer flowing through the conduit and downstream of the pressure regulator to a pressure at or below the pressure required to maintain the oxidizer in a gas state to ensure that the any oxidizer flowing through the conduit is in a gas state prior to entering the nozzle. The conduit supplies oxidizer from the supply of oxidizer to a hybrid rocket motor.
