Project Description:
The project is a continuation of the TLPD project, a throttleable rocket engine demonstrator for space applications. Most of the engine will be developed for performance and mass optimization (mainly valves and actuator/actuators). The main aspect will be the development of a new 3D printed water-cooled combustion chamber, which could eventually be cooled with oxidizer-hydrogen peroxide as coolant, in addition, the engine controller will be developed. The project is a 6kN class demonstrator with 10-110% thrust control.
