At the same time, the company has rocket general and liquid engine R&D centers in Yizhuang, Beijing and Xi’an, Shaanxi, respectively, and a rocket power system test base in Tongchuan, Shaanxi…..

Recently , the reusable liquid engine “Thunder-R1” independently developed by Deep Blue Aerospace conducted its first long-distance test run of 420 seconds under rated operating conditions. The test run time covered more than twice the flight time of the first stage of the reusable rocket “Nebula-1 ” ; The engine started and shut down normally, and the whole process worked stably. The test was a complete success, marking that the “Thunder-R1” engine entered the series boundary, life and reliability test stage.

As China’s first pin-bolt reusable liquid oxygen kerosene engine , this long-distance test run verified the reliability and stability of the system and components of the “Thunder-R1” engine under rated operating conditions. The engine status is stable and its performance is excellent. It demonstrates the technical strength and product leadership of Deep Blue Aerospace’s reusable rocket engine, and proves that the “Thunder-R1” is one step closer to being officially delivered, carrying out the high-altitude recovery test of the first stage of the “Nebula-1” rocket, and flying into orbit.

“ Thunder-R1″ is a liquid engine product specially developed for vertical recovery and reuse of launch vehicles. It currently demonstrates excellent performance in various aspects such as reuse, multiple starts, and wide-range thrust adjustment. 85% of the weight of this engine is made by 3D printing. It adopts a pump-back swing and has a compact structure. It is used as the main power for the first and second stages of the Deep Blue Aerospace “Nebula-1” recyclable and reusable liquid launch vehicle.

Up to now, the cumulative test run time of the same engine has reached 2,000 seconds, which has verified the anti-fatigue characteristics and service life of engine components in the harsh engine working environment.

The single ground ignition of the engine lasted 420 seconds. It assessed the long-range work coordination, process reliability and margin design of the entire engine and each component. According to real-time monitoring throughout the test run, the engine was working stably and in good condition. The test data is consistent with the set indicators, and all indicators meet the flight requirements of the “Nebula-1” rocket.

Long-distance test run is an indispensable and important link in the development, production and engineering application of a type of engine. The success of this long-distance test marks the rapid development of Deep Blue Aerospace’s reusable liquid oxygen kerosene rocket engine, and also provides strong power support for the subsequent “Nebula-1” rocket to enter orbit. Previously, the same “Thunder-R1” engine has completed starting and ignition test, complete machine test, secondary start test, and full flight sequence three-start test. In the future, we will continue to carry out ground testing work such as a series of working conditions for pulling deviation, swing test, life and reliability test for engineering applications. The “Thunder-R1” engine is the power foundation of the medium-sized launch vehicle “Nebula-1” and will cover the needs of liquid rockets entering orbit and first-stage recovery.

Development Progress | Deep Blue Aerospace completed the first fairing separation test in China using a non-pyrotechnic connection unlocking mechanism…

On the 2nd September 2023….. Recently, the separation test of the fairing of the “Xingyun-1” liquid recyclable and reusable launch vehicle of Shenlan Aerospace was a complete success. This is the first test in China to use a non-pyrotechnic connection unlocking mechanism to separate the fairing. In order to fully verify the separation state of the fairing under different deviations, Deep Blue Aerospace has carried out many experiments on this round, all of which use the self-developed non-pyrotechnic connection unlocking mechanism. The separation timing of the test is correct, which is basically consistent with the simulation results. No damage occurred.

This round of separation tests was completed at the Deep Blue Aerospace Nantong Rocket Assembly Base, and the fairing was completely recovered after multiple tests.

This round of separation tests was completed at the Deep Blue Aerospace Nantong Rocket Assembly Base, and the fairing was completely recovered after multiple tests.

This round of testing used the same set of connection and unlocking mechanisms to complete multiple separation tests within three days, verifying the reusability and rapid response capabilities of the self-developed non-pyrotechnical connection and unlocking mechanism. This is the first time in domestic fairing separation tests. This round of fairing separation test is one of the phased tests before the first flight of the “Nebula-1” liquid recyclable launch vehicle. The success of this round of test will lay the foundation for the successful first flight of the “Nebula-1” rocket in 2024. Solid foundation.

Why do rockets need to separate their Fairings?

The launch vehicle will encounter harsh environments during flight. The fairing protects the satellite payload from the aerodynamic forces and aerodynamic heat and also reduces the aerodynamic resistance of the launch vehicle during flight.  After leaving the atmosphere, the launch vehicle is no longer affected by aerodynamics and throwing away the fairing helps to increase rockets capacity..

Flight preparation liquid oxygen kerosene engine successfully completed the first three-start complete machine test run in China, People’s Republic of China.

The “Thunder-R1” engine participating in the test has experienced dozens of start-up tests and ignition tests under different working conditions, as well as more than ten short-range and long-range test runs of the whole machine without leaving the platform, and has excellent reusability.

Through this trial run, the following objectives were achieved: Verified the correctness of the three ignition design states of the “Thunder-R1” engine…

Multiple starts involve key designs such as start-up air consumption distribution and automatic simple post-processing. This test run focuses on verifying the correctness of the design of multiple start-up air consumption distribution and multiple start-up and shutdown processes; The rationality of process design such as automatic post-processing, automatic pre-cooling of oxygen system, and automatic maintenance of non-working section box pressure.

Verified the correctness of multiple ignition timings of the “Thunder-R1” engine

Different from Through this test run, the timing difference between the filling state before multiple starts, the pre-cooling state of the oxygen system and the first ignition was obtained, and the correctness of the design of the ignition sequence, starting sequence, and blow-off sequence during multiple starts and shutdowns was verified.

“Thunder-R1” engine’s successful three-time ignition test is a new milestone in the high-frequency and normalized test run after Shenlan Aerospace’s new vertical test station was put into use, and it also marks the deep blue aerospace in engine design, production and testing. Steady improvement in the whole process capability.

In the follow-up series of vertical recovery flight tests, a series of key technical system-level verifications, including multiple starts of the engine in the air, will be gradually carried out to achieve the successful orbiting of the “Xingyun-1” carrier rocket and the vertical recovery of the first sub-stage. Reusable.
