Abstract: The powder rocket, which makes use of particle fuel and oxidant as the main propellant fluidized by small amount of gas, can realize function of thrust modulation and multiple-impulse. Meanwhile, the advantages of excellent adaptability to extreme environment, simple engine structure and reliable operation performance makes it to be a potential propulsion system in the field of terrestrial space and deep space exploitation and has been addressed intermittently recently. The new-type powder rocket engine development history and technical status quo is summarized and analyzed and the rocket system research include cold flow calibration, ignition calibration and prototype rocket test is introduced. It is pointed out that the powder modification and pack, powder supply, powder injection, chamber combustion organization, rocket engine system research are the critical technology to be urgent solved. Furthermore, powder ignition in low pressure environment, multiple-outlet powder feed, rocket engine control and the temperature sensitivity research of powder are the development direction of powder rocket engine technologies. Rocket engine operation characteristics and advantage is summarized through literature consulting and material analysis, which offers a reference for the follow-up study and application of powder rocket engine.
