Analysis and design effort on the Advanced Maneuvering Propulsion System (AMPS) progressed satisfactorily during the fourth quarterly period. Engine system analysis and design continued and included work on the thrust chambers, turbopumps, and controls. Propellant feed system analysis and design continued in the areas of thermal conditioning, propellant orientation, pressurization propellant management, attitude control, and feed lines. Engine critical component demonstration testing was accomplished on the main thrust chamber segment hardware. Seven tests were accomplished with the 30-degree, solid-wall segment thrust chamber and five tests were accomplished with the 30-degree, tube-wall segment thrust chamber. (Author)
