Cooperative Development of L75 LOX Ethanol engine: Current Status with Focus on Capacitive Chamber Testing

Kurzfassung

In 2011 DLR and AEB agreed to cooperate in the field of liquid propulsion. The L75 engine project, which started in 2008 in Brazil, is the focus of this effort. The most important event in the project up to this date is the test campaign of the capacitive thrust chamber, a full-scale model of the L75 injection head and combustion chamber, which is the main focus of this paper, along with the status of other advances made in the project during the last year.
