In plain English
NASA wants to license its technology for a lightweight, 3D-printed, one-piece liquid rocket thrust chamber assembly. This design eliminates joints to prevent failures and uses a composite overwrap to reduce weight by over 40%. Small businesses can apply to license this technology for commercialization, manufacturing, and marketing, but NASA will not provide funding.
About this opportunity
NASA’s Technology Transfer Program solicits inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses. THE TECHNOLOGY: NASA is developing a lightweight one-piece regeneratively-cooled thrust chamber assembly (TCA) for liquid rocket engines. Liquid rocket engines create thrust through the expansion of combusted propellants within the TCA. Standard manufacturing of TCAs involves individually building the injector, main combustion chamber and…
