Liquids
Focus Areas
Fluid Systems
We are responsible for the design, assembly, and operation of all systems that support SRL’s liquid engines. This encompasses both ground support equipment and flight plumbing. Our team brings together the tanks, valves, and instrumentation required to deliver fuel and oxygen to our engines. We also develop the custom electronics and control software necessary to conduct and analyze tests. Our goal is to enable and maintain a rapid testing cadence for liquid engines for years to come.
Propulsion
We develop the engines that power SRL liquids. This team designs and manufactures injectors, nozzles, and combustion chambers for all liquid engine projects. Over the past year we have completed multiple static fires and gained a wealth of valuable data and experience with liquid propulsion. We are taking this experience forward into designing more advanced, performant engines.
Development
We turn ambitious ideas into well-defined engineering projects. Development takes concepts from the initial idea through early sizing, trade studies, and system-level design to determine exactly what it will take to make them a reality. Current projects include a liquid flight vehicle built around the Scorpion engine and SRL’s first propellant pump. Projects culminate in a Concept Review, where we establish clear requirements and a path forward before handing them off to Fluid Systems or Propulsion. Our goal is to turn ideas into well-scoped projects that push SRL’s capabilities forward.
