Popis: For the start and ignition equipment (a turbo pump starter and two igiters) of the HM60-Vulcain, the main engine of Ariane 5, Europe's future launcher, special propellants based on ampsaiurr nitrate have been developed. As the ignition of such propellants is more sensitive to the well known igition parameters than most other propellants, a special program was initiated in order to study the effect of these parameters and develop the proper ipition system for the equipment.
