Abstract

The KSR-III developed by KARI is the first rocket vehicle which is adopting the liquid propellant rocket engine system in Korea. Not only the engine itself, but also the propellant feeding system is one of the most important component in liquid rocket vehicle. In this paper, the authors are intended to introduce the multi-purpose test facility(PTA-II Test Facility) which is constructed for the variety of tests on KSR-III feeding system(single component tests, verification tests, cold flow tests and combustion tests). With the results of these tests, we can identify the characteristics of rocket feeding system and decide the optimum setting values of feeding system for the successful flight.
