Study of Plasma Ignition Single Propellant

In the solid propellant electrothermal chemical (SPETC) propulsion concept, it has been proved that plasma can be successfully used to optimize and control the propellant ignition process. The ignition properties of types of single propellants in plasma source are analyzed in the paper. The characteristic of propellants ignition in defferent plasma power is obtained, and the work provide experiment evident for the study of plasma interior ballistic ignition.
