Over seven months, [Developer Name] contributed to the PURPL-Purdue/Turbopump repository by developing CAD models and analytical tools for turbopump hardware and system analysis. They established foundational 3D models for components like the MiniTorch and turbine rotor, iteratively enhancing design fidelity and manufacturability using CAD and mechanical engineering principles. Leveraging Python scripting and YAML parsing, they built parameter-driven analysis tools for NPSH and pump reaction forces, standardizing data management and enabling reproducible simulations. Their work emphasized modularity, traceability, and integration readiness, resulting in a robust, maintainable codebase and streamlined CAD-to-build handoffs that support both hardware development and system-level trade studies.

Sep 1, 2025For September 2025 (2025-09), PURPL-Purdue/Turbopump focused on delivering a modular pump parameterization capability and reaction force analysis. The work introduced new parameter files for pumps and rotordynamics and a dedicated script to calculate pump reaction forces, refactoring the codebase to consume the new parameter files. This enhances organization, modularity, and maintainability, enabling detailed pump performance analysis and informing design decisions for rotor/pump dynamics.

Aug 1, 2025August 2025—PURPL-Purdue/Turbopump: Delivered a new NPSH analysis tool for kerosene pump inducer, driven by a YAML source of truth for project parameters. The Python script computes and plots NPSH available and NPSH required for LOX and kerosene under varying tank pressures, establishing a standardized method for design parameter management and turbopump system analysis. This provides reproducible analysis, accelerates design decisions, and improves parameter governance for turbopump developments. No major bugs fixed this month; focus was on delivering a robust tooling capability and setting the foundation for future trade studies.
