“…The advanced strategic plan regarding the development of a turbopump system for a rocket engine operating on liquid fuel will take as reference the liquid hydrogen pump of the Vulcain 2 engine, equiping the first stage of the rocket Ariane 5 (SNECMA), with 20% higher power than Vulcain. [2,3] The turbopump represents the assembly with the largest complexity and the only rotating component of a liquid fuel rocket engine. The operating parameters of a turbopump result from the rocket engine's features and performances that depend as well on the vehicle mission.…”

This paper presents the activities that define a strategic development plan for a new liquid hydrogen turbopump that will equip a rocket engine and the capabilities of COMOTI Romanian Research and Development Institute for Gas Turbines in order to develop such type of product. The paper highlights the design, assembly and manufacturing stages for the two main components of a turbopump, the pump and the turbine. Subjected to analysis are the constructive solutions, performances, software for hydraulic, gasodynamic and stress calculus, and also the manufacturing technologies.
