  • spc_stnv_000114.pdf

    This artist's rendering of the RL10-powered Saturn S-IV stage is depicted as heading toward deep space after separation from the booster. The drawing is accompanied with a brief description of the Saturn S-IV.
  • spc_stnv_000112.pdf

    This paper was presented at the International Cryogenic Engineering Conference in Kyoto, Japan. It details the use of cryogenic technology in rocketry and how its usage created "many new techniques and deeply stimulated many fields of cryogenic technology."
  • spc_stnv_000100.pdf

    This paper discusses the propulsion requirements for various stages of the Apollo vehicles and the development of these engines.
  • scan0006rev_080107120531.jpg

    8 x 10 inch black and white diagram of the JII engine and the Saturn IV.
  • satuIfirsgene_062007153848.pdf

    Finding the turbopump arrangement which is best suited for a given rocket engine - space travel applications - constitutes an important task. The arrangement depends upon a large variety of different factors, such as, the engine cycle, weight, the liquids to be pumped, the cavitation performance, the bearings and their lubrication, the seals and the turbine. In this report these factors and their influence on the turbopump configuration are discussed. It is shown that three of them: weight, propellants to be pumped and obtainable suction performance have the largest influence on the selection of the turbopump. A systematic approach is outlines for the design process, which allows to arrive at a turbopump arrangement best suited for a given application.
  • reliasseliqurockengi_062107153119.pdf

    Proposed for the 10th National Symposium on Reliability & Quality Control. This paper will deal with various techniques of treatment of such data and associated graphic displays.
  • recnasexpwithydeng_041207110126.pdf

    This paper presents a review of the experience which has accumulated in the development of the Liquid Hydrogen J-2 and RL10 rocket engines. These engines are being developed by the Rocketdyne Division of North American Aviation and Pratt & Whitney Aircraft, a Division of United Aircraft Corporation respectively.; On NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) as Unclassified; No Copyright; Unlimited; Publicly available. Also found on AIAA site.
