Multi-element tanks 5. Tanks subject to loads due to propellant sloshing 6. Slosh-suppression devices for tanks 7. Materials, processes, and environmental conditions of tanks 8. Fracture control of metals used for tanks 9. Structural elements of tanks Chapter 7: Interconnecting components and structures 1. Fundamental concepts 2. Interconnecting ducts and structures in a rocket engine 3. Materials used for tubing in rocket engines 4. Coupling components for tubing 5. Control of pressure loss in tubing 6. Control of vibrations at the inlet of pumps 7. Bellows joints 8. Flexible hoses 9. Filters 10. Design of a flange joint 11. Gaskets and other seals for flange joints 12. Design of a bellows joint for a flexible, This book is intended for students and engineers who design and develop liquid-propellant rocket engines, offering them a guide to the theory and practice alike. It first presents the fundamental concepts (the generation of thrust, the gas flow through the combustion chamber and the nozzle, the liquid propellants used, and the combustion process) and then qualitatively and quantitatively describes the principal components involved (the combustion chamber, nozzle, feed systems, control systems, valves, propellant tanks, and interconnecting elements). The book includes extensive data on existing engines, typical values for design parameters, and worked-out examples of how the concepts discussed can be applied, helping readers integrate them in their own work. Detailed bibliographical references (including books, articles, and items from the "gray literature") are provided at the end of each chapter, together with information on valuable resources that can be found online. Given its scope, the book will be of particular interest to undergraduate and graduate students of aerospace engineering.

- 8***5 (18)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI didn't see a verbal description of this book as "hardcover" or paperback. Cover design and price were similar to both cover styles. I thought I'd left a question for the seller, but I may have done something wrong. The package was too small to match the hardcovers previously received so I returned it unopened. Seller was very efficient, and packaging offered excellent protection. Haven't checked to see if refund was processed.
