Abstract:

The origin of the requirements and the resulting specifications for solid propellant rocket motors used with spacecraft are discussed. Typical specification values that have been used previously are presented. Specifications discussed are total impulse, thrust level, thrust alignment, temperature, plumes and contamination, spin rate, vibration and shock, center of gravity and balance.
