STUDY OF ROCKET ENGINE EXHAUST PRODUCTS

Abstract

Specially designed apparatus for use in the studies of the thermodynamic properties of BeCl, BeCl2, BeO and Be3N2 was constructed. These items include an electron bombardment furnace-Southard drop calorimeter combination for the study of the heat capacity and heat of fusion of BeO; an ultra-high vacuum system (10 to the -10th power mm of Hg) for the study of the vapor pressures of BeCl2 and Be3N2; and a vacuum apparatus for the molecular flow effusion study of the thermodynamics of BeCl(g). Preliminary values for the heat of formation of BeCl(g) and the heat of sublimation of BeCl2 were obtained.
