Max Designed Thrust - 20kN
Cost of Manufacturing - Approx. $2500/Engine
Role - Lead Propulsion Designer
Triple 8 is the program name for our next engine platform. It will be a 20kN, autogenous, regen cooled, liquid (N2O/IPA) engine that is designed with a focus on additive manufacturing and minimal cost per launch. This project aims to manufacture the feed system, injector, and combustion chamber using DMLS and 5-axis CNC finishing. We expect this platform to be space shot capable and to likely be able to accelerate an 8" flight vehicle to beyond Mach 5.
