Abstract
Recently air breathing propulsion system is much interested in relatively comparing to the conventional chemical propulsion, and the R&D of this area is performed much more including the basic research of the solid ramjet in our country. The boron is applied to the solid fuel because of its high heating value, but it has a complicated combustion characteristics. therefore many researches have been studied in this area. In this paper the combustion characteristics of the boron have been investigated through the published papers for the purpose of the ramjet fuel application.
