Design Optimization and Parameter Analysis of a Hybrid Rocket Motor-Powered Small LEO Launch Vehicle by Hao Zhu, Pengcheng Wang, Weile Xu, Yuanjun Zhang, Hui Tian, Guobiao Cai

“…In this paper, the effects of different grain shapes of a hybrid rocket motor (HRM) and different payload mass/orbit heights on the design of small launch vehicles (SLVs) are systematically discussed. An integrated overall design model for the hybrid rocket motor-powered small launch vehicle (HPSLV) is established, and two groups of three-stage SLVs capable of sending small payloads to the low earth orbit (LEO) are designed and optimized. …”
