A Reusable Rocket Engine Intelligent Control

Development of Advanced Rocket Engine Technology for Precision Guided Missiles

The Army is developing hypergolic, liquid and gelled bipropellants for a small, selectable-thrust, liquid rocket engine (LRE) that can power tactical missiles for both current and future combat systems. The use of gel propellants brings the advantages of selectable thrust and the promise of small engine size but also introduces new challenges in combustion control. One of these challenges is th...

Electronic engine management: Key technology for intelligent engine control

Engine control center Legislators all over the world are specifying in­ creasingly tougher emissions limits for diesel engines. To comply with the requirements, emis­ sions from the drive system are constantly being reduced. As the engine’s brain, the engine man­ agement system (see Figure 1) controls key sys­ tems such as fuel injection, turbocharging and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) that a...

The Blacklight Rocket Engine

Executive Summary This report summarizes the final project results for the period of May 1, 2002 through November 30, 2002 for the NIAC CP 01-02 Phase I study, "The BlackLight Rocket Engine". The objective of the Phase I study was to assess the potential of low pressure, mixed gas hydrogen plasmas (i.e. the BlackLight Process) toward the development of high performance space propulsion systems.

Rocket Engine Failure Detection Using System Identification Techniques

HPFT HPFTP This paper presents the; theoretical foundation and HPOP application of two univariate failure detection HPOT algorithms to Space Shuttl,; Main Engine (SSME) test LPFP firing data. Both algorithms were applied to data LPOP collected during steady-sutte operation of the engine, m One algorithm, the time s_'.ries algorithm, is based on MCC time series techniques and involves the comput...
