Executive Summary :

Burning rate measurement is the most crucial with respect to full scale motor burning rate and chamber pressure prediction. The existing method is through the pressure time curve from the Agni motor firing and involves uncertainty due to the indirect approach of measurement. The regular Agni motor can be designed with provision for the Ultrasonic sensor mounting. By using proper signal processing, the burning rate can be measured/calculated. Ultrasonic sensor for Real time measurement of Agni burning rate has to be developed by Academia.
