Technology development for ADN-based green monopropellant thrusters - an overview of the Rheform project

Goal of the project Rheform is to develop new technologies for propulsion systems that use monopropellants based on ammonium dinitramide (ADN). The aim is to enable the replacement of hydrazine with green propellants so that future systems will be more sustainable and better suited for complex missions. The present work will provide an overview of the project; as well describe the results obtained on catalytic and thermal ignition.
