Summary: Preface -- Chapter 1: Fundamental concepts on liquid-propellant rocket Engines -- Chapter 2: The thrust chamber assembly -- Chapter 3: Feed systems using gases under pressure -- Chapter 4: Feed systems using turbo-pumps -- Chapter 5: Control systems and valves -- Chapter 6: Tanks for propellants -- Chapter 7: Interconnecting components and structures.Summary: This book is intended for students and engineers who design and develop liquid-propellant rocket engines, offering them a guide to the theory and practice alike. It first presents the fundamental concepts (the generation of thrust, the gas flow through the combustion chamber and the nozzle, the liquid propellants used, and the combustion process) and then qualitatively and quantitatively describes the principal components involved (the combustion chamber, nozzle, feed systems, control systems, valves, propellant tanks, and interconnecting elements). The book includes extensive data on existing engines, typical values for design parameters, and worked-out examples of how the concepts discussed can be applied, helping readers integrate them in their own work. Detailed bibliographical references (including books, articles, and items from the “gray literature”) are provided at the end of each chapter, together with information on valuable resources that can be found online. Given its scope, the book will be of particular interest to undergraduate and graduate students of aerospace engineering.PPN: PPN: 1734638486Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-ENG | ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXE
