Abstract:
The objectives to the tests performed were the following to verify that Centaur accelerations in space have been duplicated on the coast phase test stand to determine the engine decay impulses to give the differences between actual and engine commanded changes in velocity and to define the autopilot switching lines from the recovery maneuvers. Records were also taken of the test stand operating conditions, pressures, temperatures, and propellant consumption. Author
