  • Abstract
    A completely self-contained rocket-type gas generator system which provides all the electric and/or hydraulic power for a guided missile is presented. The system utilizes the decomposition products of a liquid monofuel as the working fluid for a high-speed hot-gas turbine which, in turn, supplies power to drive rotating electric machines, high-speed pumps, or other loads.
