This award to Wask Engineering, Inc., a small disadvantaged business, is for the development of a piezo-actuated throttling valve for use in a 100 lbf liquid oxygen/liquid methane reaction control system (RCS) thruster. The valve is intended to rapidly adjust the propellant mixture ratio to prevent hardware damage and allow continuous throttling from zero to full thrust. The $747,811 Firm Fixed Price contract, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center, is a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) effort to refine the valve design, verify cycle life, and measure leakage. The valve design is configured for cryogenic propellants and leverages Wask Engineering's prior experience with similar piezo-actuated valves demonstrating long cycle life and low leakage rates.
