Turbopumps for Liquid Rocket Engines

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1992
<div class="htmlview paragraph">This technical paper discusses the evolution of turbopumps designed for U.S. rocket engines, starting with the Thor, Jupiter, and Atlas missiles, which were developed in the 1950s; the F-1 and J-2 engines, which were developed in the 1960s for the Saturn V vehicle to put man on the moon; and the Space Shuttle Main ...

Liquid-Propellant Rocket Engine Injector Dynamics

Journal of Propulsion and Power, 1998
The dynamic characteristics of liquid-rocket injectors in the presence of intense combustion-chamber and propellant feed-line oscillations are discussed. Liquid-propellant injectors always function in nonsteady e ow environments and are therefore considered as a dynamic component of an engine.

Liquid rocket engine test plan comparison

37th Joint Propulsion Conference and Exhibit, 2001
Tests quantity, number of Engines fired, total cumulated firing time performed during development are key factors for reliability estimation, but above all, for Launcher customer trust. In other respect schedule and development cost are first order dependant of the Engine test plan: the difference between a high number of tests and a low rate test plan

Design of liquid-propellant rocket engines

Journal of Machinery Manufacture and Reliability, 2012
A design method for liquid-propellant rocket engines is proposed, on the basis of models adjusted in response to test results. This method increases the reliability of the results and reduces ground testing of the motors. The effectiveness of the method is confirmed by ground testing and flight experience with the motors developed by Salyut Design ...

Regenerative cooling for liquid rocket engines

Journal of Thermal Science, 1995
Heat transfer in the thrust chamber is of great importance in the design of liquid propellant rocket engines. Regenerative cooling is an advanced method which can ensure not only the proper running but also higher performance of a rocket engine. The theoretical model is complicated, it relates to fluid dynamics, heat transfer, combustion, etc...

Laser Ignition in Liquid Rocket Engines

30th Joint Propulsion Conference and Exhibit, 1994
The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using laser ignition in liquid rocket engines. Three mechanisms of laser ignition were evaluated. One method, Laser Induced Spark (LIS) ignition, was tested and the results are presented. For the LIS ignition tests, a Nd:YAG laser, at a wavelength of 1064 nm and repetition rates up to 20 Hz,

Performances Study of Liquid Rocket Engine

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014
The article presents the performance of the liquid rocket engine. It will study the combustion reaction of the liquid hydrogen and oxygen without thermal dissociation. The main elements studied are the influence of the exces of the oxidant on firing temperature, on exhaust velocity, on the evacutation temperature from the engine and on the ishotermal ...
