  2. Reaction control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_control_system

    Reaction control systems are capable of providing small amounts of thrust in any desired direction or combination of directions. An RCS is also capable of providing torque to allow control of rotation (roll, pitch, and yaw). [2] Reaction control systems often use combinations of large and small thrusters, to allow different levels of response.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-4D

    The R-4D is a small hypergolic rocket engine, originally designed by Marquardt Corporation for use as a reaction control system thruster on vehicles of the Apollo crewed Moon landing program. Aerojet Rocketdyne manufactures and markets modern versions of the R-4D.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KTDU-80

    The original Soyuz had a separated orbital correction system from its orientation system. The latter, integrated a reaction control system called DPO and the attitude control system, called DO. The KTDU-35 had a main orbit correction engine SKD, the S5.60 and a backup orbital correction engine DKD, the S5.35.

  5. Thermodynamic versus kinetic reaction control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_versus...

    In practice, if A and B interconvert with overall rate constants k f and k r, then for most practical purposes, the change in composition becomes negligible after t ~ 3.5/(k f + k r), or approximately five half-lives, and the system product ratio can be regarded as the result of thermodynamic control. In general, short reaction times favour ...

    The Academy of Sciences of Albania (Albanian: Akademia e Shkencave e Shqipërisë), founded in 1972, is the most important scientific institution in Albania. [1] In the 1980s, several research institutes began at the University of Tirana were transferred to the Academy's jurisdiction. [ 2 ]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_system

    Its name comes from the information path in the system: process inputs (e.g., voltage applied to an electric motor) have an effect on the process outputs (e.g., speed or torque of the motor), which is measured with sensors and processed by the controller; the result (the control signal) is "fed back" as input to the process, closing the loop.
