Omnye Umba wokusetyenziswa kweNitrous Oxide kwiRocketMotor

I-nitrous oxide (N2O) isetyenziswa ngokubanzi njengepropellant ye-hybrid rocket motors ngenxa yexabiso eliphantsi, ukhuseleko olunxulumeneyo kunye nokungabi natyhefu. Nangona ingenawo amandla njengeoksijini elulwelo, ineempawu ezifanelekileyo eziquka ukuzicinezela kunye nokulula ukuyiphatha. Ezi zinceda ukuthoba iindleko zophuhliso lweerokethi ezixubeneyo ezizisebenzisayo zidityaniswe namafutha afana neeplastiki zepolymer kunye newax.

I-N2O isetyenziswe kwiimotor zerokhethi mhlawumbi njenge-monopropellant okanye idityaniswe noluhlu olubanzi lwamafutha afana neeplastiki kunye neekhompawundi ezisekelwe kwirabha, ukubonelela ngegesi ephezulu yobushushu obufunekayo ukuqhuba umbhobho kunye nokuvelisa i-thrust. Xa unikwe amandla awoneleyo okuqalisa ukusabela. I-N2O iyabola ukukhulula ubushushu obumalunga ne-82 kJ/moll. ngaloo ndlela ixhasa ukutshiswa kwamafutha kunye ne-oxidizer. Oku kubola kuqhele ukwenziwa ngabom ngaphakathi kwegumbi lemoto, kodwa kunokuthi kwenzeke ngempazamo kumatanki kunye nemigca ngokuvezwa ubushushu okanye ukothuka ngempazamo. Kwimeko enjalo, ukuba ukukhutshwa kwe-exothermic akucinywanga lulwelo olupholileyo olujikelezileyo, lunokuqina ngaphakathi kwesikhongozeli esivaliweyo kwaye kubangele ukubaleka.
