1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Orion Main Engine (OME) project is an effort to procure a replacement Orion main engine replacing for the legacy Space Shuttle Orbital Maneuvering System-Engine (OMSE). The OME is being designed and delivered under the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) Program, delivered as Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) to the European Space Agency Orion Prime Contractor and subsequently to the MPCV Orion Prime Contractor. The OME project will design, build and deliver a system that will provide propulsive capability for the Orion spacecraft in order to meet desired mission objectives
1.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE
This specification defines the OME project’s generic and unique design and performance requirements pertaining to its application on the Orion MPCV. This specification defines OME system requirements pertaining to performance, design, construction, and handling of the hardware and delineates the methods by which the OME developer will develop, test, and certify the hardware. Detailed facility, acceptance, and qualification test plans and procedures will be generated separately during the development process, as required. Interface requirements between the OME project and the Orion European Service Module (ESM) are contained herein. The verification requirements for the OME system hardware are contained in section 5, customer imposed verification requirements.
1.2 REQUIREMENTS NOMENCLATURE
The following definitions differentiate between requirements and other statements.
Shall: This is the only verb used for the binding requirements.
Should/May: These verbs are used for stating non-mandatory goals.
Will: This verb is used for stating facts or declaration of purpose.
Rationale is provided for requirements. The rationale is not binding and is only used to provide additional information or examples in order to clarify intent of the requirement. In the event of an inconsistency between the requirement and the rationale, the requirement is binding and takes precedence.
In some cases, the values of quantities included in a requirement have not been determined and are designated as either “To Be Resolved” (TBR) or “To Be Determined” (TBD). Where approximate values of such quantities are known and provide useful guides for development, these values are shown along with the TBR notation. Where no value is known, a TBD will be used as a placeholder.
1.3 RELATIONSHIP TO PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS

3.0 REQUIREMENTS
3.1 MISSION OVERVIEW
The Orion spacecraft is intended to carry astronauts to destinations beyond Low Earth Orbit (LEO). The vehicle will be capable of conducting regular in-space operations in conjunction with payloads delivered by the Space Launch System (SLS) for all missions. Orion’s active mission including transit to and from destinations may be up to 21 days in duration, but can be extended up to 210 days, which includes a time period of quiescent operations, while docked to a habitation element. While the Orion provides all services necessary to support as many as 4 crewmembers for an active mission of 21 days, actual mission crew complement and duration may vary based on mission design.
The European Service Module (ESM) serves as Orion’s primary source for power, life support consumables, and propulsion. The ESM propulsion system provides translation burns and attitude control maneuvers for Orion. Orion performs different types of translation burns to support the specific mission design, such as trans-lunar injection, outbound and return trajectory correction burns, lunar orbit insertion burns and departure burns. These translation burns may be done with the ESM OME or the ESM auxiliary thrusters and in limited circumstances the ESM Reaction Control System (RCS) thrusters.
Attitude control is accomplished with the ESM RCS thrusters. An example mission is illustrated in Figure 3.1-1.
Orion uses the ESM OME to conduct a deorbit burn (in the event translunar injection has not occurred) or a trans-earth injection burn to return the Orion spacecraft to Earth in the case of a mission abort while in space. The timing of these burns varies relative to the time of abort initiation. The OME may be used to achieve an alternate mission orbit rather than aborting when the destination orbit cannot be achieved,. In these scenarios one or more burns would be required to alter the trajectory and would include a deorbit burn at the end of the mission.
In addition to an On-orbit Abort, OME is also used during ascent in an abort scenario known as an abort-to-orbit (ATO). In an ATO, the ESM OME is used to achieve a safe orbit and later to conduct a deorbit burn to return the Orion to Earth.
FIGURE 3.1-1 - EXAMPLE ORION MISSION
Release Date: 06/19/2017 Page: 15 of 157 Title: Orion Multi-purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) Program Orion Main Engine Project Technical Requirements Specification (PTRS)
3.2 SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Orion consists of the Crew Module (CM), Service Module (SM), and Launch Abort Systems (LAS) (Figure 3.2-1). The CM provides a habitable pressurized volume to support crewmembers and cargo during all elements of a given mission from Launch Operations to Earth Entry, Descent and Landing (EDL), and Recovery. The SM is comprised of 4 components, the Crew Module Adaptor (CMA), the European Service Module (ESM), the Spacecraft Adapter (SA), and the Spacecraft Adapter Jettisonable Fairings (SAJ). The SM provides services to the CM in the form of propulsion, consumables storage, heat rejection and power generation. The LAS provides an abort capability to safely transport the CM away from the launch vehicle stack in the event of an emergency on the launch pad or during ascent.
The ESM Propulsion system is the main Orion propulsion system and provides nominal 6DOF translational and rotational control of the Crew and Service Module (CSM) from separation with the SLS Upper stage until CM-SM separation prior to Earth reentry. For early Orion missions, the Shuttle heritage OMS-E provides the main propulsive force for long-duration on-orbit burns which require substantial delta-V. This heritage OMS-E, shown in Figure 3.2-2, will transition to the newly developed OME, providing the same capabilities and performance. The thrust vector is controlled by gimbaling the main engine in the yaw and pitch directions with the Thrust Vector Control (TVC) system. The TVC system is existing and the new OME will support the existing TVC interfaces.
The OME is a pressure-fed, hypergolic-reacting bipropellant, fixed thrust engine. The engine uses monomethylhydrazine (CH3NHNH2, also known as MMH) as the fuel and nitrogen tetroxide with 3% mixed oxides of nitrogen (N2O4, also known as MON-3) as the oxidizer. The OME TVC assembly (existing) gimbals the engine to provide two-axis (pitch and yaw) thrust vector control. Roll control is provided by the RCS system.
The OME is controlled by the Propulsion Drive Electronics (PDE), which serve as the central communication system/interface between the CM/CMA command and control systems and the SM propulsion system actuators and sensors. All guidance information calculated on the CM is distributed via the onboard data network (ODN), to the PDE, which translates the received commands into electrical pulses in order to operate valves (e.g. start/stop thrusters) and which scans propulsion system sensor values. PDEs are single fault tolerant at the box-level with each box containing two channels for controlling the pressurization system and downstream thrusters.

3.3 CHARACTERISTICS
3.3.1 Functional/Performance Requirements
OME.0001 Fuel and Oxidizer
The engine shall perform as specified herein using monomethylhydrazine (MMH) fuel and nitrogen-tetroxide (MON-3) oxidizer per MPCV 70156 Cross Program Fluid Procurement and Use Control Specification.
Rationale: This requirement defines the physical and chemical characteristics of the propellant and oxidizer that are used in the ESM and therefore will be used for the ESM main engine.
OME.0003 Propellant Saturation
Release Date: 06/19/2017 Page: 18 of 157 Title: Orion Multi-purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) Program Orion Main Engine Project Technical Requirements Specification (PTRS)
The engine shall meet its performance requirements with propellants saturated from 0 to 100 percent with helium per MPCV 70156 Cross Program Fluid Procurement and Use Control Specification.
Rationale: Helium gas is used to pressurize the propellant tanks. The helium gas may saturate the propellants.
OME.0004 Propellant Inlet Pressure
The engine shall be capable of operating at pressure levels at the engine inlet as shown in Figure Engine Inlet at Start (envelope) and Figure Engine Inlet at Start (corner points) for the start box and Figure Engine operating Pressures (Envelope) and Figure Engine Operating Pressures (Corner Points) the operating box.
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability and mission analysis, and therefore the OME must function within these ESM system parameters. The ESM system includes a common propellant storage element supplying 3 different engine types which must function as a system, with this operating range analyzed for the OME.

70 ⁰F +/- 30 ⁰F (21.1 ⁰C +/- 16.6 ⁰C)
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability, and therefore the OME must function within the ESM system parameters.
OME.0006 Propellant Inlet Temperature Difference
The engine shall operate with fuel delivered to the engine inlet within +/- 10 ⁰F (+/- 5.5 ⁰C) of the oxidizer temperature during steady state operation.
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability, and therefore the OME must function within the ESM system parameters.
OME.0007 Operational Altitude
The engine shall operate from altitudes of 300,000 ft (91.4 km) to space vacuum.
Rationale: This altitude represents the actual minimum altitude for flight operations of approximately 300,000 ft. Test conditions may vary below 300,000 ft as necessary to accommodate test facility limitations.
OME.0008 Propellant Valve Seal Leakage
The internal gaseous Helium leakage shall not exceed 70 SCCH with any differential pressure, between 0.0 psi (0.0 bar) to MEOP, applied across any propellant valve.
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability, and therefore the OME must function within the ESM system parameters.
OME.0009 Actuation System Leakage
The internal leakage shall not exceed 10 scch of gaseous Nitrogen with any differential pressure between 0.0 psi (0.0 bar) and MEOP applied across any engine valve pneumatic actuation system component.
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability, and therefore the OME must function within the ESM system parameters.
OME.0010 External Leakage
External leakage from any component, component/ interconnecting hardware, flange joint and metallurgical joints shall not exceed 1x 10-4 (SCCS) of gaseous Helium with any internal pressure from 0.0 psig (0.0 bar) to MEOP at any temperature specified herein.
Rationale: This is tied to standard leak requirements for mechanical joints.

Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability and mission performance analysis.
OME.0013 Mixture Ratio
The engine shall operate with a nominal oxidizer to fuel mixture ratio (by weight) of 1.65 with a tolerance of +/- 0.03 at normal operating pressure as shown in Figure: Engine Operating Pressures (Envelope).
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability and propellant system sizing for an overall 1.65 mixture ratio.
OME.0014 Start Up Transient
The engine shall develop 90 percent steady state thrust within 0.450 +/- 0.100 seconds of electrical on-signal.
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability, vehicle controllability characteristics, and interaction with propellant feedsystem during start.
OME.0015 Engine Firing Duration
The engine shall be capable of a continuous firing from 2 secs minimum to 1030 seconds maximum.
Rationale: The maximum burn duration value assumes all usable propellant passes through the main engine in a single burn. The minimum burn duration is based on established operations for minimum engine firing - to provide some delta-V overlap to protect for loss of auxiliary engines.
Engine start is defined by sending of electrical ON signal.
OME.0017 Minimum Engine Off Time
The engine shall allow a restart no later than 240 seconds after receipt of a shutdown signal.
Rationale: The minimum engine off time is based on established operations to provide the capability to perform OME burn as soon as 240 seconds after receipt of a shutdown signal from a previous burn (note in the case of EM-1/2 limited to 10 seconds ON for the 240 seconds OFF time)
OME.0018 Gas Ingestion
The engine shall operate nominally, with no engine damage, subsequent to ingestion of a maximum of 24 [in3] ( 390 [cm3]) of undissolved helium at nominal inlet conditions in either or both propellants during start-up and at any operating mode.

Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability and induced load limits on the vehicle.
OME.0023 Shutdown Response Time
The engine shall decay to less than 10% nominal thrust within 2.3 seconds from the electrical-off-signal.
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability, mission analysis, and system shutdown characteristics. Tail off impulse shall be documented and provided for guidance modeling.
OME.0024 Max Gimbal Deflection
The engine shall be capable of being gimbaled during operation with the maximum hardstop angles specified in Figure: Engine Gimbal Deflection Range.
Rationale: The engine gimbal ring must accommodate the full range of motion of the TVC and provide for margin against the minimum required gimbal range.

3.3.2 Physical Requirements
OME.0027 Mass
The dry engine assembly weight shall not exceed 278 lbm.(126.1 kg).
Rationale: This requirement is derived from the existing ESM performance capability and mass allocation to the engine (including nozzle, heat shield, and all required components).
OME.0103 Center of Gravity
The OME nominal Center of Gravity (CG), including nozzle and heatshield, relative to the OME assembly coordinate system defined in figure ESM Coordinate System shall be in accordance with the values in table OME Center of Gravity.
Rationale: in order to maintain overall vehicle CG within currently defined envelope the OME CG must be within the limits defined.

OME.0028 Transportation and Handling Loads
The engine shall be capable of meeting the operating performance requirements specified herein after exposure to the transportation loads given in Table Transportation Loads in the USA and between Europe and the USA, Table Transportation Loads in Europe, and Table Handling Loads.
Rationale: On the longitudinal direction, a positive acceleration is in the force direction and hence a negative one is in the aft direction. For the vertical direction, a positive acceleration is in the up direction and therefore a negative acceleration is in the down direction.
Remark 1: The values given in the tables correspond to the acceleration of the carrier plus the effect of gravity in the vertical axis (Z). To compute the interface loads between the transported cargo and the carrier, an inertial loading on the cargo shall be applied in the opposite direction.
Remark 2: Tables Transportation Loads in the USA and between Europe and the USA and Table Handling Loads are extracted from MPCV-RIBRE-SPE-0011, section 4.1.23.
Remark 3: Table Transportation Loads in Europe preliminarily taken from MPCV-RIBRE-CP-0088 to account for the change of the aircraft.
