System for the control of various gases
for a rocket launch pad: Case Study
This project dictated a compact
design providing high flow dynamics and close and accurate control
of the three main gases used for launching of a multi-stage rocket.
The individual gases lines for nitrogen, helium and air, (which are
needed for blanketing, propulsion, and command functions
respectively) are each supplied from a 400 Bar (6000 PSI) source
through a series of distribution units to the main regulation and
control stations.
The control of each supply line –
30 in total – is afforded by stop valves, electro-pneumatic stop
valves, regulators, and check valves. To meet with the overall
space envelope of the installation, the cartridge valve system was
chosen over conventional valves.
