Onwards LandSpace 蓝箭航天 One of sixty Chinese private space Carrier Rocket Companies in China-People’s Republic of China.. On perform a major breakthrough on May 9th to 13th, 2020, the Blue Arrow Aerospace Suzaku 2 rocket control system was successfully matched with the Tianque 80-ton liquid oxygen methane engine and successfully completed three swing test ignition tests. … located in Beijing (Zhonghang International Plaza, No. 13 Ronghua South Road, Yizhuang Economic and Technological Development Zone, Beijing as their main head office in Land Space’s headquarter, Beijing R&D Center is located in Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone in E-town… in which they also have numerous branches in Xian Research and Development Center.. also Located Huzhou Intelligent Manufacturing center in providing testing as assemblies of the components together …
According to R & D engineers of Blue Arrow Space Rocket, Suzaku 2 rocket is the first dual cryogenic liquid rocket in China that uses electromechanical servo technology. The launch vehicle control system swings the engine through a high-power electromechanical servo system and performs engine thrust vector control to achieve rocket attitude stability and high-precision control. Tianque 80-ton liquid oxygen methane engine adopts advanced pump back swing technology. Compared with the traditional pump front swing, the pump back swing can effectively reduce the size of the engine, reduce the weight of the engine structure, and reduce the swing torque.
This round of test drive completed the swing of various angles, frequencies and waveforms, verified the matching between the engine and the high-power electromechanical servo system, and obtained the static and dynamic performance characteristics of the engine swing system. Major milestones…..
In the test, the engine completed a maximum angle swing of ± 8 °, the swing frequency covered 0-20Hz, and the sine wave, triangle wave and square wave swing tests were carried out. The test project covered various control needs of the Zhuque 2 carrier rocket flight and was carried out Strict assessment was conducted and the large-scale joint swing test was successfully completed.
This test is an important breakthrough in the initial sample development stage of Tianque’s 80-ton liquid oxygen methane engine and Zhuque-2 carrier rocket. Prior to this, Blue Arrow Aerospace has completed the relevant tests of the engine system test and long-range test.
This test is the first matching verification of the engine and rocket control system. The success of the test means that the flight status of the engine has been basically confirmed, marking that the Suzaku 2 liquid carrier rocket has entered the joint matching verification stage from the single engine verification stage, which will be the future The rocket’s first flight laid a solid foundation.
