概述了旋转流态化反应器的概念，讨论了其在火箭推进中的应用。实验结果表明，通常用于1-g床的最小流态化关联式也适用于多g床。研究发现，对于低推力系统(20000磅)，燃料颗粒尺寸和/或颗粒应力对性能有限制作用。分析表明，U-233作为该型火箭发动机燃料的优越性。90,000N推力发动机的最大推力/重量比约为65N/kg。
The rotating fluidized bed reactor concept is outlined, and its application to rocket propulsion is discussed. Experimental results obtained indicate that minimum fluidization correlations commonly in use for 1-g beds can also be applied to multiple-g beds. It was found that for a low thrust system (20,000 lbf) the fuel particle size and/or particle stress play a limiting role on performance. The superiority of U-233 as a fuel for this type of rocket engine is clearly demonstrated in the analysis. The maximum thrust/weight ratio for a 90,000N thrust engine was found to be approximately 65N/kg.
