Re: ISRO GSLV MK3 News
India effectively ground tested its high-push cryogenic rocket motor at Mahendragiri complex in Tamil Nadu, the space office said on Monday. In an announcement here, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said the nation's first indigenously-planned and grew, high push cryogenic rocket motor was hot-tried for continuance for 800 seconds. The test was led at ISRO's drive complex at Mahendragiri in Tirunelvelli area, around 680 km from here. "This length is roughly 25 percent more than the motor blaze span in flight," the ISRO said. The motor will be utilized for fueling India's heaviest rocket a work in progress - the geosynchronous satellite dispatch vehicle (GSLV) Mk-III with an ability to put into space satellites measuring four tons. The cryogenic motor uses low temperature charges fluid hydrogen and fluid oxygen. ISRO said that the elite cryogenic motor was outlined and created at its Liquid Propulsion Systems Center (LPSC) in Kerala. The LPSC has likewise built up a littler cryogenic motor (12.5 ton force) and effectively flight tried it in GSLV Mk-II vehicle. The greater cryogenic motor has higher fuel limit of 27 ton when contrasted with 12.5 ton that forces GSLV Mk-II. The Jsuccessful perseverance hot test of the primary high push cryogenic motor is the tenth test in a progression of tests arranged and executed as a component of the improvement of the motor utilizing complex cryogenic innovation. The execution of the motor nearly coordinates with the pre-test expectation made utilizing the as a part of house created cryogenic motor scientific demonstrating and reenactment programming, ISRO asserted. As a feature of the cryogenic motor advancement, further tests are arranged in high elevation conditions and in full motor/stage setup. |
