N2 - This paper describes the simulation of the Revolutionary Turbine Accelerator in the software EcosimPro. The Revolutionary Turbine Accelerator is a Variable Cycle Engine developed by NASA and General Electric in frame of the Next Generation Launch Technology program. A first simulation was done in EcosimPro by the Von Karman Institude; this paper in particular describes a simulation done using libraries from the European Space and Propulsion System Simulation. Results of the simulation are described and compared to results from the first simulation. Based on these results, a weight analysis of the Revolutionary Turbine Accelerator was performed.
