Abstract

The experimental system of non-coaxial pintle solid rocket motor was designed, and through this system, the experiments that validate variable thrust principle were carried out. A series of experiments were done, so as to find out how motor free volume, pintle movement state, cylinder sending pintle to some position by one time or not, equivalent throat structure, and propellant influence the response of pressure during the change of thrust. And by analyzing the results, it is concluded that the response time of propellant is the primary factor which effects the response of pressure.
