ABSTRACT:
Hydrazine thruster 30 minimizes impulse bit degradation by making the hydrazine more reactive with the catalyst 66 by using higher temperature hydrazine and smaller catalyst grain, and also concentrates the injected hydrazine in smaller catalyst volume 66 so that heat released aids decomposition of a greater quantity of injected hydrazine.
