Liquid Fuel Rocket Engines. Design Fundamentals, Volume 1
Abstract
The book presents design fundamentals of liquid fuel rocket engines (ZhRD). It considers questions of design of the engine chamber and the propulsion system on the whole. Basic statements of the theory, methods of calculation and description of subassemblies and units of devices with liquid fuel rocket engine are given. Processes of expansion of gases in nozzles, carburetion and heat exchange are expounded, as well methods of profiling nozzles, calculation of injectors, determination of forms and volumes of combustion chambers. An analysis of work of installations with open and closed circuits is given. Supply systems with turbopump assemblies and pressure feed systems with gas, powder, and liquid pressure generators are considered. Much attention is allotted to work of installations with closed circuits and methods of power coordination of such circuits. Examples of propulsion systems were given, in particular, a description of the propulsion system of the rocket 'Vostok.'
