11D428A-16
The 11D428A-16 (manufacturer's name RDMT-135M) is a liquid pressure-fed rocket engine burning N2O4/UDMH with an O/F of 1.85. It is used for crew-rated spacecraft propulsion applications. It is currently used in the KTDU-80 spacecraft propulsion module. The previous version, the 11D428A (manufacturer's name RDMT-135) is still used as the reaction control system thrusters of the Zvezda ISS module. The 11D428A-16 generates of thrust with a chamber pressure of and achieves a specific impulse of . It is rated for 500,000 starts with a certified ignition time of 0.03 seconds to 2000 seconds. Each unit weights . Versions This engine has been used with certain variations in manned Russian space program since the Salyut 6 in Soviet times. The three main versions are: * 11D428: Delivered in 1970 for use in Salyut 1. * 11D428M: Version developed for the Yantar-2K platform. It reached space on the first launch, Kosmos 697 on August 6, 1974. * 11D428A (AKA RDMT-135): Version develope ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
KTDU-80
The KTDU-80 (Russian: ) is the latest of a family of integrated propulsion system that KB KhIMMASH has implemented for the Soyuz since the Soyuz-T. It integrates main propulsion, RCS and attitude control in a single system pressure fed from a common dual string redundant pressurized propellant system. The common propellant is UDMH and N2O4 and the main propulsion unit, is the S5.80 main engine. It generates of thrust with a chamber pressure of and a nozzle expansion of 153.8 that enables it to achieve a specific impulse of . It is rated for 30 starts with a total firing time of 890 seconds. The integrated system without the pressurization or tanks weighs ; it is long with a diameter of . Description The KTDU-80 system integrates a dual string redundant propellant and pressurization system, a main propulsion system (the SKD), an RCS (the DPO-B) and an attitude control system (the DPO-M). All the propulsion elements are pressure fed rocket engines burning UDMH and N2O4 with a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
