32 SEI utilized Phoenix Integration s ModelCenter to create a highly coupled, multidisciplinary design environment for vehicle closure and optimization Exploration of Combined-Cycle Design Space using Consistent Tools, Processes, and Assumptions Examined TSTO vehicles with a range of propulsion systems, configurations, and propellants ARES evolution could take a path that replaces the booster (i.e. Spiral-2, to improve flexibility of operations) or one that replaces the upper stage (i.e. Spiral-1, to increase reliability and abort options) MSP TBCC and RBCC combined-cycle approaches studied yielded remarkably similar vehicle size and weight results, despite very different low-speed propulsion systems Previously reported on Quicksat TBCC option had much higher Isp up to Mach 3.5 but lacked thrust margin and acceleration capability Sentinel had much lower Isp from RBCC IRS mode up to Mach 3.5, but had ample thrust margin and great acceleration capability Gross Weight (lbs) Dry Weight (lbs) Length (ft) Sentinel RBCC 756, , Quicksat TBCC 682, , S U M M A R Y 32
33 The flyback/rtls requirement for booster is a significant driver on vehicle size Elimination of the flyback requirement resulted in gross weight reduction of ~18% and dry weight reduction of ~14%. SEI does not advocate eliminating RTLS capability due to number of operational advantages it enables Goal is to understand the sensitivity and impact RTLS requirement places on system The RBCC IRS operational mode did not appear to offer any significant thrust or Isp augmentation until flight conditions exceeded Mach 2. Rocket thrusters were shut down from Mach 3.5 to Mach 8 Usefulness of integrating the rockets in the flowpath is questioned Non-integrated propulsion system likely achieve similar performance up to Mach 3.5? DMSJ-mode performance could likely be improved without flowpath interference from rocket Recommend examining alternative RBCC cycles such as SMC or DAB Concept Observations High thrust levels required by main engines to support vertical takeoff result in excessive thrust margin during final pullup maneuver prior to staging Optimal performance solution obtained at 35% throttle Similar issue for SSTO configurations as they approach MECO C O N C L U S I O N S 33
