Liquid rocket engine RD-862

The RD862 engine is intended for thrust creation and flight control of LV second stage along the active leg of trajectory in pitch, yaw and roll channels.

- The engine operates under a sceme of fuel-reach generator gas after-combustion.
- The flight contol is effected through injection of the generator gas into the supersonic part of the chamber nozzle.

The one-chamber one-mode one-run pump-fed engine is designed under the scheme of fuel-reach generator gas after-combustion.
The thrust vector control in pitch/yaw channels is effected by a gas-dynamic method based on injection of the fuel-rich generator gas into the supersonic part of the chamber nozzle. The roll control is provided by special small jet nozzles.

The turbine's working medium is a fuel-rich gas produced by the gas generator through combustion of main propellants. During the startup the TPU's rotor is spinned-up by pyrostarter driving the starting turbine
The control units are activated by pyroactators.
The engine is provided by systems supporting combustion chamber pressure and mixture ratio.
