A sounding rocket as a test bench for cost effective measurements: Development of a sounding rocket demonstrator test bench for aerospace technologies and atmospheric measurements

2015 IEEE Metrology for Aerospace (MetroAeroSpace), 2015
The Nimbus Project team, made of young engineers and university students, has developed a sounding rocket with the main aim to engineer a reusable, cost-effective test bench. This makes it possible to field test many aerospace technologies as guidance or reentry systems, enable airborne atmospheric measurements and high altitude students' experiments ...

Cryogenic test bench for the experimental investigation of cryogenic injection in rocket combusters under high-altitude conditions

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
Abstract Due to current and future environmental and safety issues in space propulsion, typical propellants for upper stage or satellite rocket engines such as the toxic hydrazine are going to be replaced by green propellants like the combination of liquid oxygen and hydrogen or methane. The injection of that kind of cryogenic fluid into

Thrust test bench for student rocket engines

2016 11th France-Japan & 9th Europe-Asia Congress on Mechatronics (MECATRONICS) /17th International Conference on Research and Education in Mechatronics (REM), 2016
This paper describes a test bench for rocket engines for educational purposes and small research launchers. Students can develop their own propulsion systems and test them under realistic process conditions. The test bench is equipped for solid combustion as well as for hybrid engines with solid propellant and gaseous oxidizer.

Optimization of Solid Rocket Motor Quenching in Gas Dynamic Tunnels during Firing Bench Tests

Key Engineering Materials, 2017
The paper presents the experimental results that allow determining optimum quenching conditions for solid rocket motors (SRM) at the stage of firing bench tests (FBT) in gas dynamic tunnels (GDT) with altitude simulation. The work describes main design approaches for quenching unit enabling reduced thermal insulation (TI) destruction by 15-20% after ...

European research and technology test bench P8 for high pressure liquid rocket propellants

36th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference and Exhibit, 2000
In 1995 the partners CNES, Dasa, SEP and DLr started the operation of the European research and technology test bench P8. This test facility designed for high pressure GH2/LOX combustion is jointly used by the partners in order to concentrate research and technology activities.

Rocket engine noise reductions by water injection at DLR test bench P8

49th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference, 2013
The German Aerospace Center located in Lampoldshausen organizes noise reduction activities by water injection into the jet of the motor during rocket engine tests at the DLR test bench P8. For this a guiding tube is to be applied as a noise reduction system.
