Advanced Search Tips NEWS Nuclear Power Not Only Arrow In NASA Space Propulsion Quiver Frank Morring, Jr. / Washington NASA is looking beyond nuclear power as it studies technologies to improve the efficiency of future deep-space missions, with some $70 million tentatively programmed to push technology that uses either nuclear power directly, or supplements it, to get beyond the limitations of chemical propulsion for space science probes. Aerocapture uses friction with an atmosphere to slow a spacecfraft, enabling orbital missions otherwise impractical due to the amount of fuel they would require. In addition to electric propulsion systems that use the power from nuclear reactors to drive spacecraft, the agency's Office of Space Science is studying high-temperature materials and structures to handle the heat of atmospheric braking, and huge solar sails for propulsion. Under a new "In-Space Propulsion" (ISP) program started in the current fiscal year, the office has named engineering teams to push several different technologies to "Technology Readiness Level 6," just short of a system demonstration. "The program is focused on developing advanced propulsion technologies looking at near- and mid-term NASA science missions, primarily," said Paul Wercinski, ISP program executive at NASA headquarters. "What we're trying to do is get these different propulsion technologies to a state of readiness such that when mission priorities get better defined, then the mission planners will have these technologies that they can reach for to use."

74. UAH: Research: Aviation And Rocket Propulsion When scientists in UAH's propulsion Research Center talk about hot stuff, don'tget too excited They're probably referring to using wastewater in spacecraft http://www.uah.edu/HTML/Research/ResRev/ARP/story2.html

Aerospace super soaker is new rocket idea When scientists in UAH's Propulsion Research Center talk about hot stuff, don't get too excited: They're probably referring to using wastewater in spacecraft propulsion. The H O Thermionic Solar Thermal Upperstage Flight - H OTSTUF - is a concept generated by graduate student Jonathon Jones, who came up with the idea of using excess water on spacecraft as a propellant. The water is superheated into steam by concentrated solar energy, then is seeded with particles that are easily ionized, such as potassium. The result of this "seeding" is a conductive gas or plasma, which is accelerated through a thermodynamic nozzle. Such electric propulsion devices using plasma flows can deliver much greater performance than traditional chemical propulsion systems, resulting in lower costs and larger payloads that can be delivered into orbit. Research in UAH's Propulsion Research Center is aimed at developing a basic understanding of how to extract maximum performance from these types of systems. Research scientists at UAH built a vacuum chamber in which to study exhaust plumes from a microwave thruster to see how different kinds of fluids behave in a variety of simulated space environments. Scientists want to determine the performance for different types of gases and compare these with the wastewater-to-steam concept to identify the most attractive approach.

75. UAH: Research: Aviation And Rocket Propulsion is the goal of ongoing research at UAH, where scientists are designing and testinghardware applicable to a rocketbased combined cycle (RBCC) propulsion system http://www.uah.edu/HTML/Research/ResRev/ARP/story3.html

Controlling gas mix could aid rocket design Getting a spacecraft off the surface of the Earth, through the upper atmosphere and into the blackness of space is no longer a challenge for most industrialized nations. Taking those same steps using a low-cost, single-stage reusable rocket, however, is a new challenge. Meeting that challenge is the goal of ongoing research at UAH, where scientists are designing and testing hardware applicable to a rocket-based combined cycle (RBCC) propulsion system. An RBCC system would use oxygen from the atmosphere during portions of the flight, reducing vehicle weight since the vehicle wouldn't have to carry as much oxidizer. The UAH test program explores means to facilitate greater control over the mixing of gases from turbine and primary rocket exhausts in the RBCC. "We can increase the efficiency of RBCC propulsion systems by how we control the mixing of those gases," says Dr. Clark Hawk, director of UAH's Propulsion Research Center. "We want the mixing of those gases to occur in a very particular way. The hardware we design and the conditions under which it operates will let us exert some measure of control over that mixing." Rockets or missiles using this RBCC technology could be launched horizontally, much like an airplane, or vertically from the ground.

79. Propulsion For aviation, propulsion is generally broken into 2 categories airbreathingpropulsion for airplanes and rocket propulsion for spacecraft. http://wings.avkids.com/Book/Propulsion/instructor/intro-01.html

Introduction page 1 Introduction Propulsion is the science of designing an engine to propel a vehicle forward or up. For aviation, propulsion is generally broken into 2 categories: air-breathing propulsion for airplanes and rocket propulsion for spacecraft. Both work on the principle of pushing high velocity exhaust gases out the back end (reaction thrust principle), but they differ in one significant detail. An air-breathing engine uses the air stream in which the airplane is flying to augment the propulsive abilities of the engine so it can carry less fuel. A rocket engine travels in space where there is no air, and therefore it must carry all its fuel internally. An air-breathing engine will have both an inlet and an exit, while the rocket will be closed in the front and only have an exit. In general, an air-breathing engine will get more thrust for less fuel than a rocket. The forces of flight (lift, drag, weight, and thrust) were discussed in the Fundamentals chapter. Thrust is the forward facing force generated by the engines of the airplane. The air flows into the engine at roughly the flight speed of the airplane, and it exits the engine flowing much hotter and faster. The thrust is computed using the rate of mass flowing through the engine times the difference between the high velocity of the exhaust gases and the original velocity of the air into the inlet. The exhaust gases flow out the back of the engine, causing a reaction force on the airplane, pushing it forward. This concept is called the reaction thrust principle.
