It worked well. Adding the iron does make for a lot of large particles in
the exhaust.

I did some quick work on using sugar for igniters once. I used Epoxy and
KN. It burns pretty slow which should be good for this. I used a diesel
glow plug to start it.

Monroe,

If you are looking at HTP to drive your turbine have you
considered a
gas generator using solids? SP125 has some details on the subject.
You
can inject water to cool the hot gas and to increase volume.
