Abstract

Compact Solid Fuel Propulsion System The invention relates to a propulsion system (1) capable of generating modular thrust, the propulsion system (1) comprising a body (10) enclosing a combustion chamber (8) in communication with at least one propulsion nozzle or valve (6) located outside the body (10), the body (10) further enclosing a solid fuel gas generator (9) configured to generate gases in the combustion chamber (8), wherein the gas generator (9) comprises a plurality of unit modules (5) independently ignitable by at least one combustion triggering device (40) and separated from each other by thermal insulation (30), the unit modules (5) being housed inside the body (10) and these unit modules (5) extending along the axis (A) and being distributed around said axis (A).
