Technical Name HTP RCS Components / Subsystem
Project Operator Taiwan Space Agency
Project Host 許耀中
Summary
The operational safety and cost are superior to the traditional space propulsion systems by utilizing nontoxic high-test peroxide (HTP) as the propellant. All components are developed and verified by TASA. A total solution for satellite applications with design flexibility can be provided to satisfy the versatility of mission requirements.
Scientific Breakthrough
The compatibility of the wet surface on the material to high test peroxide is the priority of the R&D of the green propulsion system. The storage life is a baseline of the mission life of the spacecraft and can be extended to 3 year at least due to the high compatibility of the materials utilized in the tank and pipeline.
Industrial Applicability
High test peroxide can be used as the monopropellant and the oxidizer of the bi-propellant propulsion system, therefore, the compatibility issue of the material is a key to meet the requirement of the versatility of the mission. The application of aerospace can be a satellite reaction control system, anti-collision system of the satellite, apogee kick motor and landing system for moon or planet. In addition, the same technology can be also applied to the underwater propulsion system.
