A liquid-propellant rocket or a liquid rocket is a rocket engine that uses propellants in liquid form. Liquids are desirable because their reasonably high density ...
Rocket engines use Newton's third law of motion to propel rockets. They can use liquid or solid propellants stored in separate tanks. Liquid propellant rockets can be controlled more precisely but are more complex, while solid propellant rockets are simpler but cannot easily control thrust. Rocket engines are classified based on propellants, number of stages, size, and application. Liquid propellant engines use pumps or pressurized gas to inject propellants into the combustion chamber, while solid and hybrid engines mix propellants during combustion. Rocket engines are used in applications like space exploration, missiles, and assisted takeoff.
Liquid propellant rocket engines are more widely used than solid propellant engines due to advantages of liquid propellants like high specific impulse and thrust control. There are two types of liquid propellant engines - pressure-fed engines which are simpler but have lower performance, and pump-fed engines which are more complex but can achieve higher specific impulse. Common liquid propellant combinations include hypergolic fuels which ignite on contact like hydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide, and cryogenic fuels which must be kept at very low temperatures like liquid oxygen and kerosene or liquid hydrogen.
The advantages of different types of propellantsArya Ramaru
This document discusses and compares the four main types of chemical rocket propellants: solid, liquid, gas, and hybrid. Solid propellants are easier to store but have lower performance than liquids. Liquid propellants can be throttled and restarted but are more complex. Gas propellants have low density and hybrids combine solid fuel with liquid oxidizers for benefits like throttling. In conclusion, further research on current solid and liquid fuel technologies could help commercialize spaceflight.

Cryogenics is the study of low temperatures and the production of low temperatures using liquefied gases like liquid nitrogen and liquid helium. Liquid rocket engines that use cryogenic fuels like liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen provide some of the highest performance but also require bulky cryogenic fuel tanks and heavy insulation. There are two main types of liquid rocket engines - pressure-fed engines which use tank pressure to pump propellants and are simpler but provide lower performance, and pump-fed engines which use turbopumps to provide higher pressures and performance but are more complex. Cryogenic engines have been used successfully in applications like space shuttles and rockets where high performance outweighs the challenges of storing cryogenic fuels.

Cryogenics is the study of materials at very low temperatures below -150°C. Cryogenic rocket engines use cryogenic fuels like liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen that must be stored at extremely cold temperatures to remain liquid. The first country to use a cryogenic engine was the USA in 1963, while Russia developed its own in 1983. India has successfully developed its own cryogenic upper stage powered by the CE-7.5 cryogenic engine. Cryogenic engines offer very high energy density and clean, economical propellants but also present challenges related to storage and handling of the cryogenic liquids.
Rocket engines produce thrust by accelerating and ejecting stored propellants at high speeds through a nozzle. They obtain high thrust-to-weight ratios but have the lowest fuel efficiency of all jet engines. Key components include the combustion chamber, where propellants combust at high pressures and temperatures, and the supersonic nozzle, which converts the hot gas energy into kinetic energy of the exhaust jet for propulsion. Rocket performance is optimized by maximizing exhaust velocity and specific impulse through high combustion temperatures, low-mass propellants, and nozzle designs that adapt to changing ambient pressures.

This seminar gives idea about spacecraft propulsion i.e., actually what are different latest modes of propulsion are used in space agency and also the introduction of combustion of propellants.
Rocket propellants can be either solid or liquid. Solid propellants store fuel and oxidizer together in a solid casing, while liquid propellants store fuel and oxidizer separately in tanks. Liquid propellants provide higher efficiency but require complex pumping systems, while solid propellants are simpler but provide lower efficiency. Rocket performance is measured by specific impulse, with higher values indicating more thrust per unit of propellant. Careful fuel measurement and propellant mixing ratios are required to achieve optimal rocket performance.
This presentation aims at introducing cryogenic fuel and cryogenic engine to non-specialists. It tries to convey in a synthetic form the essential features of cryogenic engineering and to raise awareness on key design and construction issues of cryogenic engine technology at a cryogenic temperature (i.e., .123 K). This basically uses the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen as an oxidizer and fuel, which are very clean and non-pollutant fuels compared to other hydrocarbon fuels like: Petrol, Diesel, Gasoline, LPG, CNG, etc., sometimes, liquid nitrogen is also used as an fuel. The efficiency of the rocket engine is more than the jet engine. As per the Newton’s third law of mechanics, the thrust produced in rocket engine is outwards whereas that produced in jet engine is inwards. This paper also deals with the modern trends and expected future outcomes.
A cryogenic rocket engine is a rocket engine that uses a cryogenic fuel or oxidizer, that is, its fuel or oxidizer (or both) are gases liquefied and stored at very low temperatures. Notably, these engines were one of the main factors of NASA's success in reaching the Moon by the Saturn V rocket.
During World War II, when powerful rocket engines were first considered by the German, American and Soviet engineers independently, all discovered that rocket engines need high mass flow rate of both oxidizer and fuel to generate a sufficient thrust. At that time oxygen and low molecular weight hydrocarbons were used as oxidizer and fuel pair. At room temperature and pressure, both are in gaseous state. Hypothetically, if propellants had been stored as pressurized gases, the size and mass of fuel tanks themselves would severely decrease rocket efficiency. Therefore, to get the required mass flow rate, the only option was to cool the propellants down to cryogenic temperatures (below −183 °C [90 K], −253 °C [20 K]), converting them to liquid form. Hence, all cryogenic rocket engines are also, by definition, either liquid-propellant rocket engines or hybrid rocket engines.
Various cryogenic fuel-oxidizer combinations have been tried, but the combination of liquid hydrogen (LH2) fuel and the liquid oxygen (LOX) oxidizer is one of the most widely used. Both components are easily and cheaply available, and when burned have one of the highest enthalpy releases by combustion, producing specific impulse up to 450 s (effective exhaust velocity 4.4 km/s).

Cryogenics is the study of production and behavior of materials at very low temperatures below -150°C. Some important cryogenic fluids include liquid hydrogen, helium, oxygen, nitrogen and air. Key applications of cryogenics include rocket propulsion, magnetic resonance imaging, superconductivity, frozen food storage and more. Cryogenic technology enables efficient rocket engines using liquid hydrogen and oxygen propellants. India has developed its own cryogenic engine GSLV Mk III to launch satellites using this technology. Future prospects include more efficient ion engines and alternative nuclear or solar thermal rocket concepts.

Cryogenic rocket engines use liquid oxygen and hydrogen propellants which offer the highest energy efficiency for rockets requiring large thrust. The United States first developed these engines in the 1960s, while the Soviet Union did not succeed until 1987. India sought to import cryogenic engine technology in the 1990s but faced sanctions from the US and later Russia backed out of the deal. As a result, ISRO had to indigenously develop the technology which took 16 years to achieve success with the GSLV launch in 2010. Cryogenic engines provide clean, economical propulsion but also technical challenges like boil off and leakage of the extremely cold and reactive propellants.
Cryogenic rocket engines use liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen propellants, which are cooled to extremely low temperatures below their freezing points. This allows them to be stored densely in rocket fuel tanks. The first operational cryogenic engine was developed by NASA in 1961. Cryogenic engines work by pumping the liquid propellants into a combustion chamber where they ignite and expand, producing thrust through a nozzle. They offer high energy efficiency but also technical challenges due to boil off and leakage risks at very low temperatures. Future rocket technologies may use alternative propulsion methods like ion engines or nuclear thermal rockets.

An improved modulation technique suitable for a three level flying capacitor ...IJECEIAES
This research paper introduces an innovative modulation technique for controlling a 3-level flying capacitor multilevel inverter (FCMLI), aiming to streamline the modulation process in contrast to conventional methods. The proposed
simplified modulation technique paves the way for more straightforward and
efficient control of multilevel inverters, enabling their widespread adoption and
integration into modern power electronic systems. Through the amalgamation of
sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) with a high-frequency square wave
pulse, this controlling technique attains energy equilibrium across the coupling
capacitor. The modulation scheme incorporates a simplified switching pattern
and a decreased count of voltage references, thereby simplifying the control
algorithm.
