Abstract

As any common Rocket Engine liquid rocket engine, the following Rocket Engine uses liquid Oxygen and Gasoline as propellants. Inside the combustion chamber the liquid Oxygen reacts chemically with gasoline continuously once spark is given to incite reaction that produces hot gases which accelerated and ejected at high velocity through a nozzle. The thrust developed by Engine is transferred to the structure and propel the whole rocket. Since Engine is vital part of Rocket the following calculation is Analytical approach to determine basic dimension of Simplified Rocket Engine.

Keywords: Rocket Engine, liquid propellants, high velocity
