Operational objectives

The driving of the general objectives implies to:

1. Create an assessment and inventory of potential applications to define a range of requirements in term of thrust force impulse, gas volume, electrical consumption, weight and dimensional features.

2. Create an inventory of propellant materials suitable for microsystems

3. Create an inventory of advanced and low-cost micro technological methods for rapid prototyping generic MicroPyroSystems.

4. Realize a design modelling support and infrastructure upon which MicroPyros developments will be relied on.

5. Create a characterisation competence and network in order to have MicroPyroSystems validation and expertise tools.

6. Realize a microtechnology compatible micro injection equipment to fill micronodes with propellant

7. Fabricate a fully autonomous demonstrator, characterize its performances and validate the designing software.

8. Disseminate, exploit results, demonstrate applications in order to make micropyrotechnics emerge.
