  • liqrockeng.pdf

    This paper presents a discussion on liquid propellant rocket engines. The first part contains a discussion on liquid propellants, including a description of various propellant types such as cryogenic, storable,bipropellant, and monopropellant. This part also points out desirable physical properties and includes a section on performance outlining the methods by which performance is calculated and shows performance for various liquid rocket propellant combinations.

    Material-propellant compatibility as related to liquid rocket propulsion system design criteria is discussed and applicable test methods to derive usable design data are presented. Test methods, with emphasis on metallic materials, are discussed and the shortcomings of a number of these test methods are pointed out. These tests include static immersion tests, stress-corrosion tests, flow tests, impact tests, and tests to determine the effect of cracks and notches in metals on compatibility. A general outline for the evaluation of metallic and nonmetallic materials with respect to propellant compatibility is presented.
