Reaction Dynamics | Revolutionizing Hybrid Propulsion Technology

February 29, 2024

“Our goal in five years – be in a position to push everyone in the industry to rethink launch in a way that can be more sustainable. We can’t just keep launching without factoring in the carbon footprint.” – Bachar Elzein, CEO Reaction Dynamics.

Reaction Dynamics is a leading company that specializes in developing groundbreaking hybrid propulsion technology. Their propulsion systems offer longer burn times and highly efficient combustion, making them ideal for launch and in-space propulsion

The company utilizes NX and Simcenter solutions to tackle a 90-year-old challenge in hybrid rocket propulsion, ensuring peak efficiency for extended durations. Their novel engine architecture, optimized through additive manufacturing and Siemens software, not only reduces costs significantly but also positions them to provide a cost-effective alternative for small satellite operators entering space.
