Research abstract
GTL has identified an innovative architecture for KV Divert and Attitude Control System (DACS). Instead of mounting a set of liquid propellant tanks around a central structural mast as done in conventional storable liquid DACS, the Compact Modular DACS uses an innovative configuration for propellant storage. The CMDACS architecture has increased volumetric efficiency that will increase the kinematic performance of a KV. In the proposed effort, GTL will begin the development of the Compact Propulsion Module used in CMDACS. A series of conceptual designs will be developed using different manufacturing approaches. An assessment of these designs will be used to create an optimum conceptual design of the Compact Propulsion Module. Approved for Public Release | 18-MDA-9710 (6 Jul 18)
