Fuel grain with open-celled matrix containing lithium |
abstract |
A reactor for a high specific impulse rocket motor and a method of generating a thrust with a high specific impulse propellant having a hydrogen or like working fluid. Combustion is accomplished by injecting a liquid oxidizer on a fuel grain characterized by an open-celled foamed matrix having a high degree of porosity to hold lithium or other fuel that becomes partially liquid under combustion chamber conditions. The matrix structure includes a metal, graphite or graphite-felt matrix having a melting temperature greater than the vaporization temperature of the lithium so that the liquefied lithium adheres to the matrix structure by surface tension under combustion conditions. The metal matrix may itself be a high performance fuel, such as aluminum or beryllium, coated with a metal of higher melting temperature. The fuel is loaded into the matrix structure while in a liquid state and in an inert atmosphere, either by immersion or by use of vacuum. |
