In this video we are going to talk about how rocket engines regulate their temperature by a process called Regenerative Cooling.
We will focus on liquid rockets as they produce an extremely high amount of thrust and impulse. The primary concepts which will be covered in this video are:
1) Area-Mach Relation
2) Isentropic Flow
3) Convective Heat Transfer
4) Sizing of cooling channels
5) Material strength vs temperature
The scientific references that I used to produce this video are as follows:
1) Crunch CFD for Cooling: crunch.craft-tech.com
2) researchgate.net/publication/321314974_Regenerative_cooling_of_liquid_ rocket_engine_thrust_chambers
3) Ulas, A., & Boysan, E. (2013). Numerical analysis of regenerative cooling in liquid propellant rocket engines. Aerospace Science and Technology, 24(1), 187-197.
4) Marchi CH, Laroca F, Silva AF, Hinckel JN. Numerical solutions of flows in rocket engines with regenerative cooling. Numerical Heat Transfer, Part A: Applications. 2004 Apr 1;45(7):699-717.
