What Does POP Stand For?
POP stands for Preburner Oxidizer Pump
The Preburner Oxidizer Pump (POP) is a critical component in rocket propulsion systems, designed to deliver precise quantities of oxidizer to the preburner stage of an engine. This pump plays a vital role in optimizing combustion efficiency and maintaining engine performance by facilitating the controlled mixing of propellants prior to ignition. Its reliability and accuracy are essential for ensuring the safe and successful operation of launch vehicles.
