16.811 Propulsion System Prototyping and Testing for Aerospace Engineers
(New)(
)
Prereq: 16.001, 16.002, 16.003, and 16.004
Units: 3-3-6
Focuses on design, fabrication, and test of high-speed rotating machinery for propulsion using advanced manufacturing modalities, subject to constraints on time, cost, and schedule. Emphasizes key principles of manufacturing and machine design, system integration, implementation, and performance verification using methods of experimental inquiry. Students refine subsystem designs and fabricate working prototypes. Includes component integration into the full system with detailed analysis and operation of the complete device in the laboratory, as well as experimental analysis of subsystem performance, comparison with physical models of performance and design goals, and formal review of the overall system design. Provides extensive instruction in written, graphical, and oral communication. Enrollment limited; preference given to Course 16 majors.
