Abstract:

Presented is a summary of test results from a program to develop the YLR101-NA-15 vernier engine. The program was completed in three phases 1 Downrating the tank-fed thrust of the YLR101-NA-13 vernier from 830 pounds to 525 pounds, 2 modifying and repackaging the 525pound-thrust vernier into the YLR101-NA-15 configuration, and 3 developing a modified vernier injector to minimize a thrust chamber erosion problem which occurred at the 525-pound-thrust level.
