Shielding Development for Nuclear Thermal Propulsion
Radiation shielding analysis and development for the Nuclear Cryogenic Propulsion Stage (NCPS) effort is currently in progress and preliminary results have enabled consideration for critical interfaces in the reactor and propulsion stage systems. Early analyses have highlighted a number of engineering constraints, challenges, and possible mitigating solutions. Performance constraints include pe...
متن کاملJet Propulsion Engines
The jet propulsion engine is used for the propulsion of aircraft, m issile and submarine (for vehicles operating entirely in a fluid) by the reaction of jet of gases which are discharged rearward (behind) with a high velocity. As applied to vehicles operating entirely in a fluid, a momentum is imparted to a mass of fluid in such a manner that the reaction of the imparted momentum furnishes a pr...
متن کاملCycle Trades for Nuclear Thermal Rocket Propulsion Systems
Nuclear fission has been used as a reliable source for utility power in the United States for decades. Even in the 1940’s, long before the United States had a viable space program, the theoretical benefits of nuclear power as applied to space travel were being explored [Humble, et. al.]. These benefits include long-life operation and high performance, particularly in the form of vehicle power d...
متن کاملREIMR - A Process for Utilizing Liquid Rocket Propulsion- Oriented ‘Lessons Learned’ to Mitigate Development Risk in Nuclear Thermal Propulsion
This paper is a summary overview of a study conducted at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (NASAMSFC) during the initial phases of the Space Launch Initiative (SLI) program to evaluate a large number of technical problems associated with the design, development, test, evaluation and operation of several major liquid propellant rocket engine systems (i.e., SSME, Fastrac, J-2, F-I). One of th...
متن کاملNuclear Naval Propulsion
The largest experience in operating nuclear power plants has been in nuclear naval propulsion, particularly aircraft carriers and submarines. This accumulated experience may become the basis of a proposed new generation of compact-sized nuclear power plants designs. The mission for nuclear powered submarines is being redefined in terms of signal intelligence gathering and special operations. Th...
