SF6 sulfur hexafluoride

A further special area of propulsion systems is Chemical Thermal Propulsion (CTP). CTP is defined in contrast to STP (solar thermal propulsion) and NTP (nuclear thermal propulsion). In CTP, in a very exothermic chemical reaction in a closed system, heat but no pressure is generated since the products of the reaction are solid or liquid. The heat energy is then transferred to a liquid medium (the propellant) using a heat exchanger, which is responsible for the propulsion of for example, the torpedo. Suitable propellants are e.g. water (the torpedo can suck it in directly from its surroundsings) or H2 or He, due to their very low molecular or atomic masses. The basic principles of CTP can also be used in special heat generators. A good example for a chemical reaction which is suitable for CTP is the reaction of (non-toxic) SF6 (sulfur hexafluoride) with easily liquified lithium (m.p. 180 °C) ... [Pg.69]
