液氧/液甲烷以其高性能、无毒、易于轨姿控一体化、行星表面资源原位利用等优势已成为国际化学空间推进的主流发展方向之一, 对国内外低温液氧甲烷化学空间推进发展和3 000 N液氧甲烷发动机的方案设计和试验研究进行了介绍.方案主要包括总体结构方案, 喷注方案、冷却方案、点火方案和燃烧稳定性分析.3 000 N发动机于2017年3月进行了点火热试车, 发动机点火全部取得成功, 并进行了5 s和10 s稳态试验.燃烧效率约0. 95, 推算推力大于2 860 N, 地面比冲大于242 s, 与设计指标基本相当.%Liquid oxygen and liquid methane cryogenic propulsion has become one of the most promising chemical propulsion as its advantanges of high specific impulse performance about 350 s, nontoxic, easily integrated main engine and RCE (reaction control engine) and available from local resources on some exploration destination, such as MARS. This paper introduced the developing history of cryogenic liquid oxygen and liquid methane propulsion and the details of the designing and testing methods of the 3 000 N liquid oxygen and liquid methane rocket engine. Engine designing scheme mainly focused on the structure of the injector, cooling, ignition and combustion stability. A hot-fire test of the 3000 N rocket engine was conducted on March 2017, in this test, ignitions of this engine were totally successful, as well as 5 s and 10 s stable tests. As a result, this liquid oxygen and liquid methane rocket engine achieved thrust larger than 2 860 N, combustion efficiencies about 95％ and ground specific impulse larger than 242 s, which are very close to the designed values.
