See other companies with research projects supported by PIPE ProgramThrusters are essential components for attitude control systems and orbiting space artifacts such as rockets and satellites. It is in the thrust chamber that the fuel is burnt and the thrust is generated. High temperatures are developed in the thrust chambers requiring the manufacture with refractory materials whose melting temperatures exceed 2000oC. Because of the high melting temperatu…
In this research project the development of the injector head for a 400 N bipropellant thruster for use in apogee kick engine module is described. The proposal is based on the concept of a compact head where the injector elements and the feed manifold are machined on the face of three plates, one for the distribution of the feed propellants, one for the oxidizer and one for the fuel. The …
This project proposes the development of an electromagnetic valve to be used in the propellant + oxidizer mixture injection control on space propulsion systems. The main challenges on this research area are related to the compatibility the materials used must present to the propulsion fluids. Thermal and mechanical stability, leakage, opening and closing times also must be evaluated. A…
