Abstract:
The article analyzes the current state and development prospects of rocket engines for space exploration. Currently, for flights to other planets, not to mention the stars, the use of liquid-propellant and solid-propellant rocket engines is becoming increasingly unprofitable, although many rocket engines have been developed. Thus, to reach manned planes even the nearest planets, it is necessary to develop rocket launchers on engines operating on principles different from chemical propulsion systems. The most promising in this regard are electric, laser and nuclear rocket engines, as well as hy

Abstract:
As a matter of fact, rocket engine technology has developed rapidly in the last 100 years, which plays a crucial role for stellar travelling and detection for astrophysics usages. To be specific, different models, designs and simulation computer software had been developed in order to investigate and explore the dynamic process of the engines as well as evaluate the effectiveness and ability of the rocket engines. With this in mind, this paper gives a basic description of the designs, simulations, and products for rocket engines. In detail, this study will include description of four basic des

Abstract:
Today’s space nuclear technology programs are often confronted with two fundamental challenges early in the project life cycle: 1) development and testing will be more expensive than a non-nuclear alternative, and 2) the consequences of failure will be more severe. As a result, many space nuclear programs have been designed to minimize testing and maximize their probability of success: their reliability. The United States' Nuclear Engine for Rocket Vehicle Applications Program recognized these facts early on, and by 1961 the program’s primary objective set safety and reliability as the overrid

Abstract:
In this work, flow parameters of the working body (hydrogen) were calculated at the inlet, throat, and exit sections of the liquid-phase nuclear rocket engine nozzle. A method was proposed for determining the specific impulse of thrust while accounting for losses due to scattering, friction, and variations in the specific enthalpy of the working body caused by non-adiabatic effects. The calculated specific impulse exceeded 9500 m/s, significantly surpassing the performance of chemical rocket engines. The evaluation of the thermogasdynamic parameters of the working body expansion confirmed the

Abstract:
At the current stage of space exploration development, missions to the Moon and geostationary orbit are relevant. Enhancing of power supply level of such missions requires innovative technology development. Nuclear rocket engines and engines with use of solar energy are considered among such technologies. In a number of projects, such engines use intermediate heat energy accumulators, which complicates and increases the cost of construction. This embodiment uses a circuit that enables solar engine to operate with any orientation of the thrust direction towards the sun. The dependence of specif

The signals of rocket launches can be detected at infrasound arrays in thousands of kilometers distance. We use microbarometer arrays, which are part of the International Monitoring System (IMS) for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT), to identify and characterize rocket launches all over the world. We studied more than 1000 launch events for space missions and their infrasonic signatures. Even small-lift launch vehicles such as Electron rockets starting from New Zealand with payloads of only a few hundreds of kilograms, e.g., for small satellites, can regularly be detected by one

Abstract:
Hot gas path components of current generation, liquid fuel rocket engine turbopumps (T/P) are exposed to severe thermal shock, extremely high heat fluxes, corrosive atmospheres, and erosive flows. These conditions, combined with high operating stresses, are severely degrading to conventional materials. Advanced turbomachinery (T/M) applications will impose harsher demands on the turbine materials. These demands include higher turbine inlet temperature for improved performance and efficiency, lower density for improved thrust-to-weight ratio, and longer life for reduced maintenance of re-usable

These alloys for high temperature service, known as superalloys, are utilized at a higher proportion of their actual melting point, approaching or even slightly exceeding 0.9Tm, where Tm is the melting point, than any other class of commercial metallurgical materials. In addition to aircraft, marine and industrial gas turbines, these high temperature alloys see service in space vehicles, rocket engines, submarines, nu

This POSTnote looks at hypersonic missile technologies, efforts to develop them, potential applications, and the possible challenges they may present for missile defence and global stability. Key Points: • Hypersonic missiles combine speeds of over five times the speed of sound with significant manoeuvrability during flight. • Their manoeuvrability enables them to change trajectory during flight, making their flight-path and target difficult to predict. • They fly at lower altitudes than ballistic missiles, which means that they may be harder to track at long distances with some surface-based
