75-LBF PBPS Monopropellant Engine Test and Evaluation.

Abstract

Two 75-lbf thrust monopropellant hydrazine engines were tested and evaluated to determine the suitability of the hardware for meeting initial PBPS design requirements. One of the engines exceeded all of the minimum specified design and operating requirements with a delivered vacuum thrust in excess of 72 lbf and a specific impulse in excess of 224 seconds for the complete design life of 500 seconds.
