1. Scope and Applicability

This PCR covers the factory-gate production of complete thrust-producing reaction engines classified as CPC 43133 that are not turbo-jets and are supplied as finished engines or motors. The foreground boundary begins with received materials and purchased components and includes fabrication, joining, precision cleaning, assembly, acceptance testing, and the shipping package applied at the manufacturing site.

Turbo-jets and turbo-propellers, piston aircraft engines, other gas turbines, separately supplied engine parts, aircraft or spacecraft integration, operational propellant carried for use, in-service maintenance, use-stage operation, launch or flight, and end-of-life are excluded. A dataset shall state the reaction-engine technology and propellant or working-fluid system; this label controls which conditional exchanges and tests apply without changing the canonical category.

System boundary rules · 4
Rule IDApplies toRuleSource IDs
boundary_factory_gatemanufacturing foregroundInclude received-material control, fabrication, joining, precision cleaning, assembly, acceptance testing, and factory-applied shipping protection through release of the accepted dry engine at the factory gate.nasa-jsc-manufacturing-assembly-integration, nasa-wstf-development-qualification-acceptance
boundary_test_mediaacceptance testingAdd every actual propellant, oxidizer, pressurant, purge gas, cleaning liquid, and direct exhaust species as its own atomic exchange when it crosses the foreground boundary; the listed natural-gas and oxygen rows apply only to that declared route.ecss-e-st-35-10c-2009
boundary_cleanlinessprecision cleaningInclude cleaning media, rejected baths, rinses, drying energy, and cleanliness verification that occur at the manufacturing site; preserve product-specific cleanliness criteria.ecss-e-st-35-06c-rev2-2020, nasa-jsc-manufacturing-assembly-integration
boundary_exclusionsdownstream stagesExclude installation in a vehicle, distribution after the factory gate, operational propellant loaded outside manufacturing, launch or flight, maintenance, and end-of-life unless a study explicitly extends the boundary and reports those stages separately.
Allocation rules · 4
Rule IDApplies toRuleSource IDs
allocation_subdivisionshared manufacturing and test operationsPrefer direct metering or subdivision by engine model, work order, machine hour, test firing, or accepted dry mass before allocation.
allocation_shared_facilityresidual shared utilities and support activitiesAllocate only the residual unmetered share using a documented causal driver; disclose the driver and test sensitivity when the residual materially affects results.
allocation_scrapmachining metal scrapKeep input-material burdens with the engine product and report scrap at the measured factory-gate waste amount; do not claim an avoided-burden credit unless the governing LCA study method requires it and the credit is reported separately.
allocation_reworkrejected or reworked unitsAttribute rework, retest, and scrapped-unit burdens to the accepted output of the same reporting period; do not omit failed tests from the production yield.nasa-wstf-development-qualification-acceptance
Validation rules · 7
Rule IDApplies toRuleSource IDs
validate_reference_identityreference productConfirm the product flow UUID, CPC 43133 identity, accepted dry-mass measurement, and all required qualifiers before dataset release.un-cpc-3-0-structure-2025
validate_atomic_inventoryall inventory rowsReject collection labels or combined flows; each reported material, utility, cleaning chemical, test fluid, package, waste, and elementary emission shall be one atomic exchange.
validate_mass_reconciliationmanufacturing processReconcile material issues, return to stock, accepted dry product, machining scrap, cleaning waste, rejected hardware, and inventory changes; explain any material residual.
validate_test_routeacceptance testingNatural gas, industrial oxygen, and fossil carbon dioxide rows may be nonzero only for a documented compatible test route; add separately identified flows for every other test medium or direct emission.ecss-e-st-35-10c-2009, nasa-wstf-development-qualification-acceptance
validate_direct_emissionstest exhaustConfirm direct fossil carbon dioxide is measured at the foreground exhaust boundary and does not repeat upstream emissions embedded in purchased-input datasets.
validate_cleanliness_recordscleaning and assemblyConfirm that cleaning requirements, verification results, and any post-test re-cleaning are present for the declared engine configuration.ecss-e-st-35-06c-rev2-2020
validate_unresolvedunresolved flow identities and rangesKeep the wooden-crate and spent-cleaning-solution UUID gaps and all range-evidence needs open until exact identity or independent compatible evidence is reviewed; do not invent proxies or numeric ranges.
