Thermal insulation inside the rocket motor experience severe pressure and temperature conditions. Experimental determination of heat flux imparted to thermal insulator inside the rocket motor during the static firing is a challenging task. This paper reports experimental determination of heat flux for double base propellant (DBP) in small rocket motor. It includes development of experimental rocket motor, adaptation of water-cooled heat flux sensor on rocket motor, required instrumentation for heat flux time recording and analysis of data. Data are recorded in real time for double base propellant combustion up to the pressure level ~3.6 MPa. Average heat flux imparted to the rocket motor casing is found in the range of 230–300 × 104 W/m2. Heat flux inside the rocket motor varies nearly linear with pressure. A correlation between the heat flux and pressure is also established for measured pressure range.
