  • S1VBsathigh_032608091902.pdf

    The development of carrier rockets For manned space missions has been one of the major activities in the aerospace field during the past decade. The early space efforts were made possible by the existence of large ballistics missiles. It soon became obvious that the delivery of weapons and the launch of large spacecraft could not be combined into one operational system in an efficient way; therefore, a family of spacecraft boosters had to be created.

  • Rockengiturbspactrav_101507142613.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.
  • Rockengiselecrit_042908141859.pdf

    This paper considers many of the factors and criteria which have to be considered and evaluated when selecting a specific rocket engine for a given vehicle application. The lists of criteria can be helpful as checklists in design and systems engineering of a rocket propulsion device. About ten different applications are examined to illustrate the relative importance of some of these selection criteria. There will be groupings of our major types of criteria; namely, performance, operational, economic and so-called judgment criteria. In many cases the last three categories are equally or more important than the performance criteria in selecting one of several rocket engines for a specific application. The actual selection usually is a compromise to make the rocket engine responsive to several important criteria.
