JANNAF Guidelines for the Application of Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) to Micro-Propulsion Systems, 2022 Edition

Spacecraft developers place considerable emphasis on stated Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) to establish system-level maturity; however, the methodology for determining TRL is often inconsistent across various technologies. In 2019, the MicroPropulsion Panel of the JANNAF Spacecraft Propulsion Subcommittee developed a set of TRL guidelines for the micro-propulsion community. That work expanded on the general guidance provided by Department of Defense (DoD) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) documentation and sought to provide a consistent metric by which TRLs may be assigned to spacecraft micro-propulsion systems. Since the release of the 2019 guide, community feedback is motivating an updated edition of the guidelines to provide clarifications on critical TRL entry and exit criteria as well as to facilitate continued usage of the TRL guidelines.

JANNAF boundary layer integral matrix procedure

Accurate predictions of the thrust loss due to boundary layer effects and of the wall heat flux are very important to the design and performance evaluation of rocket nozzles. A method used in analytical procedures for liquid fuel rocket engine performance prediction and evaluation is presented. A computer program is examined that is a fast and accurate procedure for solving the set of boundary layer equation (momentum, energy, and species) for laminar or turbulent, chemically reacting flows with a wide variety of boundary conditions. Results of comparison of the various turbulent models are presented. A summary of the modifications and additions to the program is examined.

Report on JANNAF panel on shotgun/relative quickness testing

As the need for more energetic solid propellants continues, a number of problems arises. One of these is the tendency of high energy propellants to transition from burning (deflagration) to detonation in regions where the propellant is present in small particle sizes; e.g., in case bonding areas of a motor after a rapid depressurization causes a shear zone at the bond interface as the stressed propellant and motor case relax at different rates. In an effort to determine the susceptibility of propellants to high strain rate break up (friability), and subsequent DDT, the propulsion community uses the shotgun/relative quickness test as one of a number of screening tests for new propellant formulations. Efforts to standardize test techniques and equipment are described.

Laser transit anemometer measurements of a JANNAF nozzle base velocity flow field

Velocity flow fields of a nozzle jet exhausting into a supersonic flow were surveyed. The measurements were obtained with a laser transit anemometer (LTA) system in the time domain with a correlation instrument. The LTA data is transformed into the velocity domain to remove the error that occurs when the data is analyzed in the time domain. The final data is shown in velocity vector plots for positions upstream, downstream, and in the exhaust plane of the jet nozzle.
