In this paper, the combustion instabilities which may occur in the hybrid rocket were studied. The rocket combustor where the vortexes can be generated was designed, and the experiments were performed. The investigations about characteristics on the presence of the diaphragm, the length of the fuel, the diameter of the fuel port, the diameter of the diaphragm, the diameter of the nozzle throat, and the variation of the Ox massflow rate were conducted. The main resonant frequency of the combustion pressure is regarded by the Vortex shedding mode, and it is considered that the other resonant frequency of the pressure fluctuation is hybrid low frequency, or helmholtz mode.
