Longyun Engine
70-ton Liquid Oxygen-Methane Engine
Product Introduction:
The "Longyun" liquid oxygen-methane engine is the first multi-start, reusable, high-thrust liquid rocket engine launched by Jiuzhou Yunjian. It can serve as the primary first-stage propulsion system for medium- to large-scale liquid launch vehicles. The "Longyun" engine boasts a sea-level thrust-to-weight ratio exceeding 80, delivering a sea-level thrust of 70 tons and a vacuum thrust of 80 tons, with a thrust modulation range spanning from 32% to 106%. This engine can be configured in parallel setups of up to five units for rockets with a diameter of 3.35 meters, seven units for 3.8-meter-diameter rockets, or nine units for 4.2-meter-diameter rockets. Each individual module supports liftoff masses ranging from 350 to 630 tons, while the heaviest configuration—utilizing multiple parallel modules—can achieve liftoff masses as high as 1,800 tons. Currently, the "Longyun" engine has successfully completed a 7,000-second hot-fire test evaluation. Notably, it marks the first domestic achievement of ignition testing using stainless steel tanks paired with a liquid oxygen-methane engine. In 2024, the engine will undergo suborbital flight tests and sea-based recovery operations.Product Specifications:
