EFFECT OF HEAT ENVIRONMENT AND LENGTH OF ULLAGE FITTING ON OPERATING DURATION OF THE ATLAS MA-2/5 VERNIER ENGINE

Abstract

The results of an analytical study to determine the effect of heat input to the Atlas MA-2/5 oxidizer start tank on vernier engine duration are presented. Also presented are the results of a test program to determine the saving affected in residual oxidizer weight through the use of a special oxidizer start tank ullage fitting with increased length.
