SRTC Participation in Award Selection Committees

• The Wyld Propulsion Award The Propulsion Award and the James H. Wyld Memorial Award honoring

the developer of the regeneratively-cooled rocket engine were combined in 1964 to become the James H. Wyld Propulsion Award. In 1975, the name was again modified to the Wyld Propulsion Award, which is now presented for outstanding achievement in the development or application

of rocket propulsion systems.

• The Propellants and Combustion Award Presented for outstanding technical contributions to aeronautical or

astronautical combustion engineering. Most recent recipients include R. Ellis, V. Yang, E. Oran, H. Krier, …
