Low-Order Model of a Fluidic Thrust Vector for a Venture Class Orbital Launch Vehicle**

随着快速增长的商业空间经济的出现，该行业正在努力开发低成本的空间发射系统，将关键有效载荷送入轨道。控制执行器是运载火箭的关键子系统，也是重要的成本驱动因素。总部设在蒙特利尔的反应动力学公司正在开发一种新型发射系统，利用用于制导、导航和控制(GNC)系统的流体推力矢量(FTV)系统将小有效载荷送入近地轨道。滑铁卢大学的多物理相互作用实验室由Jean-Pierre Hickey教授领导，将开发一个低阶模型来估计用于火箭发动机流体控制的新型冲击推进器向量(STV)开发的传递函数。这种模式将使反应动力公司能够开发一种独特的技术，这种技术将能够以具有成本效益的有效载荷交付，并将为加拿大提供将小型卫星发射到轨道上的手段，这将直接影响其他加拿大公司。

With the emergence of the rapidly growing commercial space economy, the industry is striving towards the development of low-cost space launch systems to insert critical payloads into orbit. The control actuators are a critical subsystem of any launch vehicle and an important cost driver. The Montreal-based Reaction Dynamics is developing a novel launch system for the delivery of small payloads into low-earth orbit using a Fluid Thrust Vectoring (FTV) system for Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) system. The Multi-Physics Interaction Lab at the University of Waterloo, headed by Professor Jean-Pierre Hickey, will develop a low-order model to estimate the transfer function for the development of a novel Shock Thruster Vectoring (STV) for fluidic control of the rocket engine. This model will allow Reaction Dynamics to develop a unique technology that will enable a cost-effective payload delivery and will provide Canada with the means to launch small satellites into orbit, which will directly impact other Canadian companies.****
