Engine modification for the Falcon 9 exploded during testing

The Merlin engine for the Falcon 9 launch vehicle exploded last Sunday at the SpaceX test site in Texas, reports TASS message of the newspaper The Washington Post.

This is a new engine modification. His tests are suspended until the investigation is completed.

According to the company representative, “the incident most likely will not affect the launch schedule for the Falcon 9 launch vehicles.” On the first stage of the rocket, nine Merlin engines are installed, and on the second, one such engine.

Malfunctions on the carrier rocket occurred before. Thus, the launched 28 on June 2015 of the year from Cape Canaveral Falcon 9 exploded on the 139 second flight, even before the separation of the first stage. As a result, the ship Dragon and 8 satellites Flock 1f were lost. After that, SpaceX announced changes to the design of the rocket.

In September 2016, the incident occurred during pre-launch tests: a rocket exploded two days before the scheduled launch during refueling. The Falcon 9 and its Israeli communications satellite Amos-6 were destroyed.

The rocket launches were suspended and were not conducted for more than 4's months. Experts have concluded that the explosion resulted in damage to one of the cylinders of the helium supply system in a tank with liquid oxygen at the second stage.

It is very optimistic and rosy, but it is worth recognizing that in the part of deep space exploration we are completely behind. They will make their engines anyway. I’ll even say more - if we continue to stomp on the spot, then we will completely rid ourselves of the entire Soviet backlog.

thanks to the private mask shop

Private? And the fact that technology and specialists were handed over to him from NASA is nothing? And the fact that he has the full support of the state is also nothing? And with all this, SpaceX is still unprofitable, is this also nonsense?
You, dear, ignoramus. Go learn your lessons.

[Blackmokona]

And what kind of technology and specialists are transferred? For reference, NASA did not even develop Saturn-5. Saturn-5 was developed by a group of companies, led by a Boeing.

[Monos]

In 2002, Musk was assisted by: Michael Griffin (worked for the CIA, NASA, JPL, Orbital Sciences Corp., headed NASA in 2005), Jim Cantrell (was engaged in industrial espionage for the United States) and an engineer who worked for the aerospace company TRW Space & Electronics, Tom Mueller. In 2002, after the creation of SpaceX, Musk lured a whole team of engineers from TRW to her. Then TRW sued him over the stolen technology, but, having all the patents, the court lost.
Tell me, Musk himself invented and did everything? Oh well...

[Blackmokona]

And so from NASA there is only one scout and then he is not part of the SpaceX states, but he just helped a thing extremely extensible and unverifiable, did he hire the rest from another private building? Yes, it’s straightforward to see how entire brigades NASA expelled.
Yes, yes, having the patents, the court lost. Well. well, a little drip and find that TRW ceased to exist in the year SpaceX was founded, when the corporation was devoured by Northrop, SpaceX was only 3 months old.

[The black]

There is an old joke. I adapt to the topic.
In SpaceX, I wonder why the left solid fuel accelerator exploded, and in the FSB - why the right one did not explode ...

[Blackmokona]

SpaceX does not use solid fuel boosters

[NIKNN]

Quote: BlackMokona

SpaceX does not use solid fuel boosters

So the same joke. But here

At the first stage of the rocket, nine Merlin engines are installed

We have four in the union. The more engines, the greater the likelihood of a malfunction ... Until powerful engines master, problems will be 2 times more likely ..., well, according to probability theory ...

[Blackmokona]

However, even if one engine explodes, the Falcon-9 can successfully complete the flight. There are already two-engine aircraft against single-engine ones.
Plus Falcon-9 is an analogue of Proton, not a union. And that cumulatively has more engines.

[NIKNN]

Quote: BlackMokona

However, even if one engine explodes, the Falcon-9 can successfully complete the flight.

If any engine explodes, it will not fly, because it usually destroys the entire device ...

[Blackmokona]

Nope, the Marilyn engines are weak, open circuit and in their holder is provided for protection.
Thus, the broads should not stop the flight.
A simple shutdown, up to two engines.

The Falcon 9 booster is capable of successfully completing a flight even when 2 of 9 first-stage engines fail [10] [11]. In such a situation, flight computers recalculate the flight program, and the remaining engines run longer to achieve the required speed and altitude. Similarly, the flight program of the second stage is changing.

[maxim947]

A lot of things are also written on the fence ...

[IL-18]

Proton? And where will you launch it if Kazakhstan thinks that heptyl is too toxic for use from Baikonur? Nazarbayev is already old. And our spaceports are located to the north, i.e. the farther the launch from the equator, the more expensive the payload to orbit. Yesterday, a Vega rocket with a Ukrainian engine flew from the Kourou space center.

[maxim947]

All this fuss against toxic fuel is nothing more than blackmail, more money to tear off, who will refuse free money? Moreover, it falls into the steppe, where there is nothing to muck.

Almost 100 people burned alive, including Marshal Nedelin, who was the organizer of this disgrace. So the comparison is not at all in favor of Russia / USSR for now.

Yes, and after mentioning the trampoline, you should remember whether there was a recent piquant incident in one energy superpower when a storekeeper fell ill at one super factory, and because of this, a whole batch of rocket engines was soldered in the wrong solder. Just business - a couple of missiles fell and losses of several billion ...

from serial - no
from experimental - there is a reference to one of the options developed for NASA in the mid-60s
But this is only true for the Merlin 1A variant.
And even then his age was very short:
This type of engine was used twice(!!!):
- the first time on March 24, 2006, when a fuel leak occurred in the engine, which led to an accident shortly after the start of the flight;
- the second time on March 24, 2007, when he worked successfully. In both cases, the engine was used on the Falcon 1.
Next is your own development.
Now "Merlin 1D +" is already flying, the 4th (or even 5th) version of the engine.

On August 27.08.1998, 180, at the stand of NPO Energomash in Khimki, the RD-40 engine ran for 200 seconds. instead of the intended XNUMX. It was disabled by commands from sensors that detected overheating of the turbopump assembly (TNA). Subsequent inspection showed significant damage (burnout) of the oxidizer pump. The reason for the failure was called an incorrectly installed gasket, which blocked the flow of the cooling component in the TNA. The incident occurs during the bench test engine.
May 17.05.2005, 180, a burnout occurred during the main tests (obviously, this refers to the control and technological test) of the RD-5 engine. Tests were conducted at NPO Energomash before export to the USA for use in the Atlas-XNUMX launch vehicle. Details of the incident are unknown.
In March 2002, the accident occurred RD-191 at the stand of NPO Energomash in Khimki. At the end of the 4th of the planned series of short-term fire tests of the rocket engine lasting 18 seconds. there was a partial destruction of the suspension unit of the combustion chamber with the opening of the bellows and part of the pipelines. Automation clearly tracked the start of the accident and turned off the engine. The stand and RD-191 received local damage, but the latter became unsuitable for continuing the tests. According to the developer, the culprit of the emergency was a new control system, which was worked out during these tests.
In August 2010, one of the RD-191 engines burned out during the scheduled multiple tests. According to the representative of NPO Energomash: “The engine was supposed to burn out. This is an absolutely normal standard situation, specialists had to establish what loads it was able to withstand.”
25.12.2009/171/1 during the fire acceptance test of the RD-17,6M engine at the stand of NPO Energomash OJSC, the engine failed with the destruction of the material part of the engine and individual systems of the stand. The commission, which included specialists from various departments of NPO Energomash, examined the results of processing telemetric measurements and the results of the analysis of the state of the material part, the results of the calculated estimates and the results of specially organized and conducted experimental studies concluded the following. 2. The engine failure during its operation at the nominal thrust mode occurred as a result of a fire for 18,2 seconds in the gas cavity behind the TNA turbine at the junction of the exhaust manifold of the turbine with the gas path of one of the chambers (chamber No. 2). The development of combustion led for 3 seconds to the destruction of the gas path of the engine behind the turbine, explosion and fire. 4. The initiation of ignition occurred as a result of the ingress of a foreign object (substance) into the gas cavity during engine manufacturing that could not be detected by regular inspection and control procedures. 171. The organic nature of the foreign object (substance) that has got inside the gas path during the work with the subassembly of the “gas duct block” of the engine is recognized as the most probable. 171. The identified cause of the RD-180M engine failure does not require the adoption of corrective measures for the RD-191M, RD-5 and RD-18 engines that have passed the fire acceptance tests. XNUMX. The Commission developed and recommended a set of corrective measures to prevent the ingress of foreign objects (substances) into the internal cavities of all types of engines, and the introduction of an additional procedure for inspecting the gas path of engines at the final stages of assembly. However, it is not very clear how, in the presence of organic pollution, ignition occurred only at the XNUMXth second of engine operation.

You cannot force those “specialists” without Lavrenty Palych to develop something different from the Soviet legacy. TNA and gasgen can now be oversized and in CAD, but in order to put a stage on a barge, you need to think.

Rogozin's son pulls on Beria? He doesn’t even pull on Isaac Waltzman. There was such an organizer of the production of tanks in Chelyabinsk Tankograd, put in a minister, did not pull. Will Vostochny Cosmodrome ever start to justify itself?

Before engaging shapkozakidatelstvom and uryapatriotizmom, we must remember that under the feet walking path there. Yes, they are mistaken and much that does not work out. But they work. But in Russia, as with advanced developments? What's up with the Hangar? Many projects remain on paper because there is no money. And by the way, many Russian engineers are working on foreign projects. So do not say that they need to fly into space on a trampoline.

What, no money? Who doesn’t? “This year was marked by the return of 16 Russian entrepreneurs to the Forbes rating (dollar billionaires). In 2017, there were no departures from the Forbes list on the Russian Federation.”

[Vadim237]

The state does not have money, for the development of space technology, etc. And none of our billionaires will invest in Roscosmos - a very big risk of losing all investments.

[screw cutter]

Not everything can be bought for money. Apparently, Soviet cadres started to end, but there are no schools for new ones in the states, and Russian new ones have not yet grown up. A well-fed life does not contribute to the birth of new ideas, it only contributes to the creation of frauds for cutting budget money, since The industry is not visited by fans of their craft, but by careerists and lovers of jamon.

[models]

Those. did the Soviet personnel at the stands never and when didn’t explode?

[Gormenghast]

Mask was in low-voltage engines.

But he quickly cleared that it was not effective enough, and began to force the engines. Hence the explosions. Given that in his missiles 9-27 engines of the first stage, this approach is not productive.

[Vadim237]

He now has the most intense engine is the Raptor.

The biggest boost when moving from
Merlin 1C: Pressure in the combustion chamber - 6.14 MPa
on
Merlin 1D Pressure in the combustion chamber - MPa 9.72 MPa
It’s quite a fly successfully.

That's right.

[Captain Nemo]

I notice that in recent years the circle of readers and main commentators of VO articles has pretty much grown up with couch experts who have moved here from Odnoklassniki. They don’t know anything, they don’t understand anything, but there’s more than enough “urry-patriotism”. Well, the desire to pile America and NATO with the hands of other people's sons (and not their own), more than enough. But adequate people in most cases prefer to keep silent with disgust. But in vain. Keep it up!

[screw cutter]

I’m embarrassed to ask. And how did you find out about adequate people if they are “squeamishly silent”? And
before blaming others for incompetence calling them "couch experts" it would be nice to hear from you a professional comment on this topic.

[Ronald Reagan]

Read the comments. For the most part it is: “Hurray!”, “So they need it”, “Ukrainians!”, “Bandera!”, And all that sort of thing. Do you really think such people are competent? They have not sniffed gunpowder in life and do not understand what they are carrying.

As for the "squeamish" perhaps too much ... Uninteresting. In addition, Cervantes was read ... Yes, and it is difficult to respond to nonsense.
PS I do not pretend to be "adequate" - I have my own cockroaches in my head. Do not offer treatment, it’s not bad for me.
PPS At one time he was seriously interested in astronomy and everything related to space. Knowledge has not disappeared, but you read a different comment and understand that it is useless to explain anything ...

According to a company representative, “The incident is not likely to affect the launch schedule of the Falcon 9 launch vehicles.”

And where is the rocket? An engine of a new modification exploded at the stand. Nothing happened with the rockets and the current engines.

Of course, they are Russian.

On Falcon are American engines Marilyn. Russian engines on the Atlas launch vehicle, and Antares launch vehicle.
Deltas, Pegasus, Minotaurs, Taurus and Falcons fly on American engines.

Who says ignoring the situation? if their rockets explode, then orders will appear with us and vice versa; if we explode, then orders from them. Another thing is that this industry is developing poorly. Space X will have more money

[Blackmokona]

An engine exploded, not a rocket.

[Ronald Reagan]

Space X doesn't have as much money as it seems. And if their business burns out, then the bald from Amazon will get involved in the work. He is already breathing in Mask's back.

And even when that bald from Amazon last year blew up the engine at the “patriots” stand, they somehow did not notice it.

It’s too early for Americans to fly into space. What can they bring there? Arms race, deceit, robbery, filibuster, fascism and terrorism? They introduce all this in excess on the earth. So in space this country has no place!
