Description
Our vision for a "green" upper stage propulsion is a non-toxic multi-use system using HAN and kerosene, offering variable thrust with a high degree of mission tailoring. Additionally, such system will be capable of rapid transients to enable pulsed propulsion for tactical missions. To meet the rapid start and shutdown transient goals, we offer an innovative injector manifold design capable of reducing trapped propellant by as much as much 70% as compared to traditional designs. We will perform parametric systems and combustion analysis to define the TCA and system parameters. In the Option program, we will deliver a conceptual designof the propulsion system including tanks, pressurization, valves, TCA, etc to meet the upper stage requirements.Approved for Public Release | 17-MDA-9395(24 Oct 17)
