  By Hareendran M. R., Jesna Jenson Pukkoden, Nikhil Christy Joy, Sangeeth Krishnan N.G, Santo K. Johny

  Abstract: Almost all of the rocket engines in use today are chemical rockets. These engines have high thrust to weight ratio, but they have very low specific impulse and use of heavier chemicals leads to a reduced exhaust velocity and higher emissions. Even though alternative fuels have been used, the mass of propellant required remains an issue. Therefore, methods that can replace chemical propulsion have been researched and developed, like electric …
