FLUID COOLING WALL FOR THRUST CHAMBER ASSEMBLIES, ROCKET ENGINE, AND METHOD FOR COOLING ROCKET ENGINE THRUST CHAMBER ASSEMBLY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a highly efficient cooling system for a thrust chamber assembly, which improves convective heat transfer.;SOLUTION: The thrust chamber assembly cooling system is disposed in a cooling channel of a nozzle assembly, having a twisted ribbon/wire of any one of various cross-sections, via which coolant flows in a swirling manner inducing mixing, thereby disturbing a boundary layer in the cooling channel to enhance convective heat transfer.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
