Summary

Machine-generated summary

The German Aerospace test facility P8 in Lampoldshausen is used for research into high-pressure combustion in rocket engines and testing of turbopumps, using the specially designed test cell P8.3. Supply lines for low and medium mass flow rates already exist there, and new lines for high mass flow rates are now being procured. The scope covers the complete design, manufacturing and delivery of two supply line sections, including turbine flow meters and interface valves, for the liquid oxygen and fuel feed lines at P8.3 in DN100 size, designed for an interface pressure of 14.5 bar. Because the media are cryogenic, the lines must be vacuum-insulated.

Description

Der P8 in Lampoldshausen ist eine Testanlage für die Forschung an Hochdruckverbrennung in Raketentriebwerken, sowie der dazu benötigten Turbopumpenerprobung. Dazu wird die spezielle designte Testzelle P8.3 benutzt. Am P8.3 existieren Fahrleitungen für niedrige/mittlere Massenströme und es werden welche für hohe Massenströme benötigt. Diese Leitungen sind Gegenstand dieser Ausschreibung. Diese Leistungsbeschreibung umfasst die vollständige Konstruktion, Fertigung und Lieferung von zwei Fahrleitungsteilen, einschließlich Turbinen-Durchflussmesser und Interfaceventil, für die LOX- und Brennstoffzuleitung im P8.3 in DN100 für einen Interfacedruck von 14,5 bar. Da die Medien tief kalt sind, müssen die Leitungen vakuumisoliert sein. Weitergehende Informationen sind den Vergabeunterlagen zu entnehmen./ The P8 facility in Lampoldshausen is a test site for research into high-pressure combustion in rocket engines and the associated testing of turbopumps. The specially designed P8.3 test cell is used for this purpose. While supply lines for low and medium mass flow rates already exist at P8.3, lines for high mass flow rates are required. These lines are the subject of this tender. The scope of work covers the complete design, manufacturing and delivery of two supply line sections including turbine flow meters and interface valves - for the LOX and fuel feed lines at P8.3 (DN100 size, designed for an interface pressure of 14.5 bar). As the media involved are cryogenic, the lines must be vacuum-insulated. Further information can be found in the tender documents.
