More Information
Summary:A rocket engine is provided with a fuel flow path (31-39), a catalyst part (51), a turbine (12), a first pump (11), a combustion chamber (21), and a nozzle (22). Hydrocarbon-based fuel flows through the fuel flow path (31-39). The catalyst part (51) is provided in the middle of the fuel flow path (31-39), and gasifies the fuel. The turbine (12) is driven by the gasified fuel. The first pump (11) supplies the fuel to the fuel flow path (31-39) by the driving of the turbine (12). The combustion chamber (21) burns the gasified fuel supplied from the fuel flow path (31-39), and an oxidizing agent. The nozzle (22) delivers combustion gas in the combustion chamber (21) and is cooled by heat exchange with part of the fuel flow path (31-39).
