SMC Standard: Evaluation and Test Requirements for Liquid Rocket Engines

Abstract

This Standard establishes the test and evaluation requirements for liquid propellant rocket engines. These requirements shall be used to define a test program, primarily for qualification and production acceptance, that will appropriately verify the design, identify latent defects, ensure adequate functional performance, and help ensure a high level of confidence in achieving successful launch missions. It is expected that the overall program will also include a thorough development program and use other good engineering practices to help maximize the success of the test program.
