APPLICATIONS STUDY FOR A HIGH-PERFORMANCE CRYOGENIC AEROSPIKE ROCKET ENGINE.

Abstract

This report presents application data for an advanced aerospike rocket engine utilizing LO2/LH2 propellants. The engine concept was applied to six different stage configurations defined by the Air Force to represent the diversity of potential applications; six vehicles were defined at 250K vacuum thrust level and six defined at a 350K level. A common engine module is defined for the six vehicle cases at each thrust level. (Author)
