Heavy hydrocarbon main injector technology

One of the key components of the Advanced Launch System (ALS) is a large liquid rocket, booster engine. To keep the overall vehicle size and cost down, this engine will probably use liquid oxygen (LOX) and a heavy hydrocarbon, such as RP-1, as propellants and operate at relatively high chamber pressures to increase overall performance. A technology program (Heavy Hydrocarbon Main Injector Technology) is being studied. The main objective of this effort is to develop a logic plan and supporting experimental data base to reduce the risk of developing a large scale (approximately 750,000 lb thrust), high performance main injector system. The overall approach and program plan, from initial analyses to large scale, two dimensional combustor design and test, and the current status of the program are discussed. Progress includes performance and stability analyses, cold flow tests of injector model, design and fabrication of subscale injectors and calorimeter combustors for performance, heat transfer, and dynamic stability tests, and preparation of hot fire test plans. Related, current, high pressure, LOX/RP-1 injector technology efforts are also briefly discussed.

Heavy hydrocarbon main injector technology program

The Heavy Hydrocarbon Main Injector Program was an analytical, design, and test program to demonstrate an injection concept applicable to an Isolated Combustion Compartment of a full-scale, high pressure, LOX/RP-1 engine. Several injector patterns were tested in a 3.4-in. combustor. Based on these results, features of the most promising injector design were incorporated into a 5.7-in. injector which was then hot-fire tested. In turn, a preliminary design of a 5-compartment 2D combustor was based on this pattern. Also the additional subscale injector testing and analysis was performed with an emphasis on improving analytical techniques and acoustic cavity design methodology. Several of the existing 3.5-in. diameter injectors were hot-fire tested with and without acoustic cavities for spontaneous and dynamic stability characteristics.

Open-Source Contributions to Arbiter2

Login nodes at High-Performance Computing (HPC) sites are shared resources used by a multitude of users to compile, test and submit jobs to the batch system. Because these nodes are shared by multiple users at any time, if a minority of users are using a significant proportion of the resources of the node (CPU, memory, etc.), other users' tasks may be negatively impacted. Arbiter2 is an open-source project developed by the University of Utah that aims to prevent these occurrences by dynamically limiting the resources of users depending on whether they are excessively using resources. INL has sought to adapt and develop Arbiter2 for a potential deployment at INL and plans on upstreaming the changes and improvements so that other HPC sites running Arbiter2 can benefit from their work.
