Integrated Engine Health Management System

Abstract: The program will start with an in depth consultation with the Air Force in order to ensure that the latest data is incorporated into the program plan, and that the ultimate program goals will be met. In this proposed effort we will apply these health monitoring approaches centered around a rocket engine system model to develop the failure mode evaluation capability the Air Force Integrated Powerhead Development (IPD) engine. Benefits: In this proposed effort we will apply these health monitoring approaches centered around a rocket engine system model to develop the failure mode evaluation capability the Air Force Integrated Powerhead Development (IPD) engine. The Air Force, in conjunction with NASA/MSFC have been engaged in developing a high fidelity ROCETS model of the engine that is well correlated to hot fire test data. We will be heavily supported by Faulkner Consulting, Inc. in this effort. The review will encompass all of the engine components with the exception of the turbopumps.
