Abstract: During the proposed Phase I research and development effort, the project team will demonstrate the feasibility of the Solid Propellant Engine for Enhanced Delta-V (SPEED) with its associated advanced Hot Gas Valve technology. This approach to solid propulsion will be demonstrated to be applicable to providing highly controllable propulsion for Post Boost Control Systems (PBCS). A conceptual design of the engine will be created and performance estimated. The project team will conduct a hot-fire, feasibility demonstration of the technology.
Benefits: The proposed project will result in solid PBCS propulsion technology with increased specific impulse, controllable thrust ,and a 1,000 second mission profile.
