\u0141ukasiewicz \u2013 Institute of Aviation, as a member of the winning consortium, will implement a project for the European Space Agency, which aims to develop and test a rocket engine demonstrator with an aerospike nozzle for planetary landers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the project, an assessment of conceptual solutions (both existing and own \u2013 developed as part of this project) of rocket propulsion systems with aerospike nozzle will be carried out regarding the possibility of its utilization to planetary landers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Particular attention will be paid to ensuring sufficiently efficient cooling of the most thermally loaded structure elements and the possibility of changing the thrust over time. The prepared concepts will also be assessed in terms of feasibility and implementation costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the concept that best meets the requirements, a detailed design of a demonstrator powered by liquid oxygen and liquid methane with a thrust of 5-6kN will be developed. The demonstrator will eventually be built and tested at the German Aerospace Center DLR in order to verify its operating parameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ESA project will be implemented in the consortium: TU Dresden (leader), FhG IWU, FhG ILT, DLR and \u0141ukasiewicz \u2013 Institute of Aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
