  1. Big dumb booster

    Big Dumb Boosters BDB are a general class of launch vehicle built around the idea that it is cheaper to mass build and operate a large, strong, heavy rocket of simple design than it is to build a few smaller, lighter, more cleverly designed ones. Even though the large booster is less efficient for an all around operation, its total cost of operation is cheaper because it is easier to build, operate and maintain. As with all forms of mass production , it is likely that, as builders gain more experience with production of parts and construction, and more production infrastructure is established, costs may go down further. However, in having a bigger rocket, a smaller number of rockets need to be produced to launch a certain mass of payload into orbit, thereby working against mass production. Concept work was led by proponents at Aerospace Corporation Aerospace Corporation , TRW , and Aerojet General , beginning in the late 1950s. The typical formula included maraging steel HY 140 for structure, pressure fed cycle rocket pressure fed engines using N2O4 UDMH , later LOX RP 1 , with pintle injector s scaled up from TRW s Lunar Module descent engine. ref name mcd Schnitt, Arthur 1998 http foyle.quarkweb.com Minimum Cost Design for Space Operations Foyle. ref TRW developed and fired several engines, including a robust, low cost engine of 250,000 pounds thrust to demonstrate the engine technology readiness. ref name trw Dressler, Gordon A. and J.

Operating on LOX LH2 the engine had a thrust of 2892  kN, or 650,000 pounds, making it one of the most powerful engines ever constructed. ref name astronautix http www.astronautix.com engines tr106.htm TR 106 on astronautix ref Overview The goal of the development was to produce a large, low cost, easy to manufacture booster engine. The design used a single element coaxial pintle injector, the least complex type of injector. It also used ablative cooling of the combustion chamber and nozzle instead of the more costly to manufacture regenerative cooling. ref name astronautix The use of the pintle injector allows the engine thrust to be widely throttleable, as was the case for the Lunar Module Descent Engine. ref name astronautix Status Test results demonstrated that the engine was stable over a wide variety of thrust levels and propellant ratios. ref name astronautix Development of the engine was temporarily discontinued with the cancellation of the Space Launch Initiative. ref name astronautix Since then TRW was acquired by Northrop Grumman and development of the engine for potential use on next generation launch and space transportation vehicles is continuing under contract to NASA . ref name grumman http www.as.northropgrumman.com products booster vehicle eng index.html Northrop Grumman booster vehicle engines ref Technology from the Low Cost Pintle Engine project was used in the development of engines by SpaceX .

    Dean Everett Wooldridge 30 May 1913 in Chickasha, Oklahoma 20 September 2006 in Santa Barbara, California was a prominent engineer in the aerospace industry. Something of a prodigy, Wooldridge graduated from high school at age of 14. He received his Bachelor s degree bachelor s and master s degree from the University of Oklahoma . Like his future colleague Simon Ramo , Wooldridge went on to study at the California Institute of Technology , from which he received his doctorate of physics summa cum laude in 1936. After leaving Caltech, Wooldridge moved first to Bell Laboratories , where he worked on the theory of magnetism . In 1946, he and Simon Ramo his classmate at Caltech both became director of research for the electronics department of Hughes Aircraft , and his career became coupled with that of Simon Ramo. Together they formed an incredibly successful team for many years, with Ramo concentrating on investment and general business aspects while Wooldridge led research, development and engineering efforts. By 1948, Hughes had created its Aerospace Group to work with the also newly created U.S. Air Force . Ramo and Wooldridge were particularly concerned when Howard Hughes avoided their attempts to discuss the problem. In September 1953 they jointly resigned, and within a week they formed to Ramo Wooldridge Corporation on September 16, 1953. In 1958, Ramo Wooldridge merged with Thompson Products to form TRW , which carried on the success of its predecessor. In 2002, TRW was bought by Northrop Grumman . Wooldridge served as president of TRW until he retired in 1962. He was a member of the United States National Academy of Sciences National Academy of Sciences .
