Some fundamental aspects of a regeneratively cooled, upper stage rocket plane with external-burning thrust augmentation are investigated analytically. Cases considered are only the ejected coolant is burned externally and all of the thrust required for sustained cruise is provided by external burning. One conclusion is that external-burning configurations offer an apparent advantage over internal propulsion systems in that the total vehicle cooling requirement for high-speed operation is much less for the external- burning regeneratively cooled configuration. Also, the fuel required for propulsion by an external-burning configuration greatly exceeds the fuel required for cooling.
The book follows a unified approach to present the basic principles of rocket propulsion in concise and lucid form. This textbook comprises of ten chapters ranging from brief introduction and elements of rocket propulsion, aerothermodynamics to solid, liquid and hybrid propellant rocket engines with chapter on electrical propulsion. Worked out examples are also provided at the end of chapter for understanding uncertainty analysis. This book is designed and developed as an introductory text on the fundamental aspects of rocket propulsion for both undergraduate and graduate students. It is also aimed towards practicing engineers in the field of space engineering. This comprehensive guide also provides adequate problems for audience to understand intricate aspects of rocket propulsion enabling them to design and develop rocket engines for peaceful purposes.
