DOI: 10.11809/bqzbgcxb2023.10.021
Keywords: NOFBX; nitrous oxide; hydrocarbon; propellant performance; anti flashback; cooling design
Abstract: Nitrous Oxide Fuel Blend (NOFBX) is a promising propellant with merits of green, non toxic, high energy, deep throttling, and self pressurization. This paper summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of NOFBX propellant compared with traditional propellants. The development status of NOFBX propellant development, engine design of different orders of magnitude, engine hot test, anti flashback research and cooling research at home and abroad are introduced, the key technical issues for the further development of NOFBX technology are proposed.
