We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of Project HELIOS at the beginning of July 2024 🚀 This ambitious endeavor, focused on developing a bi-liquid rocket engine, had three primary objectives: conducting an engine parameter study, enhancing throttling capability and accuracy, and building a sound suppression system.
Despite some timeline delays impacting the engine parameter study, we achieved remarkable success in our other goals. Our team developed both open-loop and closed-loop controllers. The open-loop controller was rigorously tested during water cold flows this year. Along with the closed-loop controller, it will get tested again during next year’s firing campaign. Additionally, our sound suppression system was a notable triumph. Designed and manufactured during the HELIOS project cycle, it was successfully tested in our firing campaign. 🔥
At this point, we also want to thank all our sponsors for supporting HELIOS! A special thanks to Messer Schweiz AG for generously providing the propellants essential for our testing, and to Franke Group for manufacturing the new FSS tank we designed. Your contributions were invaluable! 💫
HELIOS is integral to ARIS rocketry, and its accomplishments will serve as the foundation for next year’s project, which aims to develop ARIS' first bi-liquid flight engine. We look forward to building on this success and achieving even greater milestones together.⭐️
